      Hi veezen, thanks so much for the great rating! There is now a new version that is 2.8 compatible ready for download to existing customers, there are instructions on the main page but contact me directly through Blender Market if you are having problems.

    One of the keys to this add on is that it spaces points out evenly. This is a lot more useful for Curves to Mesh than the default Blender option. Author is responsive and helpful. The add-on is great value for the price.

    In the beginning, I had an issue with using Add-on caused by my Blender’s settings.
    After a few hours of unsuccessfully trying to find the problem, I contacted Mark.
    He responded right away and instructed me what to do to fix it.

    Mark, many thanks for taking the time to help me out.

    This add-on is awesome. Super useful and time-saving.
    It is exactly what I needed.

    Love it love it love it! So simple, great topology and really easy to use. Obviously would be awesome to have it as a modifier but I understand there are some limitations with that. Nonetheless I appreciate that it creates the mesh as a new object and doesn't affect your curves, so depending on your project, adjustments shouldn't be too bad. I'm using this to wrap something around a foot, so being able to setup the path I visually like with curves first is just awesome. Cheers!

    This is a great addon, which has tremendously improved my workflow. – For a long time I was looking for a way to loft a hull across several curves in blender. Now, due to this addon, it’s really convenient, to get back to the original curves during the modelling process, to control the form and make design changes, without having to work on the mesh itself, but by just adjusting the control points of the curves. A new hull can be generated at any time with the new 'Curve Profiles To Mesh’ function. The addon is running stable and working really neat, even on complex curves with a lot of points. It’s efficient and a real timesaver. – Great job, Mark!

    Hi, Mark
    You are so genius and nice guy.
    I've been looking for such kind of plugin.
    I'm really glad to get this.
    By the way, it doesn't work with Text.
    I've been trying to use the command "Curve to Mesh" with Text, but it said, "You must select either 1,2 or 4 bezier curves".
    What did I do wrong?

    Also, I have a request.
    In "Curve profile to Mesh", I'd like you to add edge shapes to define.
    For example, now when I prepared 3 cycles and center one is smaller than the others, and do "Curve Profile to Mesh", the edges are so sharp and linear.
    In some case, I don't like this kind of result.
    Thank you.

      Hi Rikatty,

      Thank you for the good review and kind words!

      For Text: You need to convert the Text object into a Curve object. This is simply done by selecting the text, pressing alt-c, and then selecting the 'Curve from Mesh/Text' option. This will change the Text object into a curve object which you can then use the plugin on. Note that you won't be able to change the text once you have done this.

      Regarding your request: I think I understand what you mean; would you like the option to have a smoother transition across the curves? I think that would be a nice feature too so I'll add it to my jobs list :)

      If you'd like to chat further or have any other questions, send me a message through the 'Contact the Creator' option.

      All the best,

      Mark
