    I wish I could leave 10 Stars!

    I've been using Machin3tools from the free version which was amazing!!
    It became my top favourite addon so I updated it to DeusEx. There are so many tools & pie menus, that to this day I still don't use all of them. That is a great feature choose to use!

    The Dev; Machin3 is the best; one of most responsive creator of addons I know. He has personally help me with scripting problems I had for modification of an addon that I now use daily! The amount of work he puts into Machin3tools & other Addons is self evident; constantly striving for better more optimal work flows and less key strokes and always making life so much better for his Addon users!

    He is always adding new features; some, like the empty Grouping tool which could be an addon of its own is Awesome! Group Tools using empties as parents allows for scene organization within the 3dview & Outliner (has its own mode for show the group hierarchies). In DeusEx version of Group tools you also have Group Gizmos and Group Poses allowing you to use the grouped empties as rig and makes it dynamically faster to rotate a grouped structure into an pose which can be saved and recalled!

    I’ve been using Blender for architectural modeling every day for about two years, and I just had to write a review. Honestly, if I sit down at a computer with "vanilla" Blender today, it literally feels like half of my tools are missing.

    The absolute lifesavers for my archviz workflow are Toggle Region, Focus, Material Picker, Snapping Pie, and Transform Pie. I can't remember a time when I wasn't using them. When dealing with complex architectural scenes, you're constantly sampling different textures, trying to snap walls and furniture precisely, and isolating specific rooms to work on.

    I won't even mention the Modes Pie or the Cursor and Origin Pie. They are absolute non-negotiables for me at this point. They are so deeply baked into my daily process that using Blender without them is unimaginable.

    Sure, you can technically do all of this in vanilla Blender. But the difference is that MACHIN3tools makes it incredibly effortless. Instead of doing keyboard gymnastics or digging through menus just to change a snapping setting or pick a material, it’s all just a quick swipe of the mouse. The muscle memory builds up so fast that you stop thinking about the software and just focus on the design.

    At the end of the day, you can do anything with the default tools if you click enough times. However, time is the one thing we cannot buy, and this add-on allows me to use my time much more efficiently. Thank you to the developer for understanding exactly what 3D artists need and for maintaining such an essential tool. If you use Blender regularly and want to speed up your workflow instead of fighting the interface, I highly recommend this add-on.

    Wow! I love it! Just started with this addon today. It is now a part of my workflow. Absolutely useful in so many areas and I have not even begun using all that it can do.

    Thanks. Thank you for this wonderful set of tools!

    I am a user based in mainland China.
    To be honest, I used a pirated version for a long time, and it worked very well. I also earned some money using Blender.
    So I decided to purchase the official version to support the author.

    I also hope to let you know that many users in mainland China are actually not aware of where the official website of this plugin is, which may be one of the reasons why piracy is so common.
