  I try this every so often and it just never works. It will make a mesh out of a tiny piece of the image but never does what I expect. I always end up having to turn the image into a SVG and do it manually.

  Hi Thomas, sorry to hear it’s not working as expected. If your image has transparency/alpha, TraceGenius treats transparent areas as black. For the best results, try converting it to JPEG (which makes alpha white) or replace the alpha with a color in your PNG.

  I’m always happy to help and would have gladly assisted you in getting the most out of TraceGenius if you had reached out before leaving this review. Many users achieve great results, and I’d love to help you do the same!

  Note that TraceGenius was built for and works best with Blender 4.2 and below. In Blender 4.3+, the developers made changes to some key parts of the code that TraceGenius relies on. I’ve updated it to work with the latest version, but these changes have made it only partially compatible. The update is the best I can do given Blender’s modifications.

  The best addon for any 2d to 3d workflows ever. I originally bought the addon when it was first announced and installed every update since then and it continues to get better with each update. I convert a lot of 2d to 3d vector art over and it works flawlessly. The Dev deeply cares for his product and will answer any question and find a solution to any issue. 100% recommended! Thanks again.

  Version 3.2 supports Blender 4.3 excellently.

  Please uninstall previous version(very important).
  Then Download and install the latest version of TraceGenius(version 3.2).
  It works like charm, and you'll love it!

  Going forward from Blender version 4.3, Blender's developers have changed how we call the greace pencil programmatically, from "bpy.ops.gpencil.trace_image" to "bpy.ops.grease_pencil.trace_image".
  This massive change breaks the previous versions of my addon in Blender 4.3.

  I've implemented the changes and updated it in the newest version of TraceGenius(version 3.2). It now supports Blender 4.3.
  I'm very dedicated to improving TraceGenius and making it compatible with the current and even future version.

  I'm really sorry to hear about your experience.
  After installing the latest version of TraceGenius, please chat with me and let me know how it performs.

  If you reached out to me earlier with a direct message/chat instead of a review, I believe this review would have been a positive one.

  Output Options:
  NGONs Mesh (Default)
  DICED Mesh
  Curve Object (A favorite among users)

  These options allow you to easily switch between output types for maximum customization.
  If you want a specific output feature, have issues, inquiries or suggestions, please chat with me instead.

  Thank you for your feedback, Dre.

  A great tool for importing and converting images, logos, icons to 3D. Doing this the old way with default tools was a bit cumbersome and took time to tweak or rework extraneous polygons and edges. The beveling specifically, is very help to have. The options to use different fills vs outlines is also very helpful. Still messing with this and its actually quite fun when you get instant results and can just delete and do it again with different settings in seconds!

  Lastly, the dev was very quick and helpful to reply to my question when I was getting odd results that were the result of me not seeing the info about not using transparent backgrounds on images. I simply converted them to JPEG to get the white background and that q
