How do I install the addon?
You'll do this through blenders preferences. There's a little arrow that allows you to install a zip file. I've made this video to show you how. https://youtu.be/wg76UZ9uCW0
What version(s) of Blender does this addon work for?
Currently, the Pulse addon only works for Blender 5.0 and up. If you want the addon but your machine requires you to use an older version of blender, there is a good chance I'm already working on a solution for you.
Was AI used in the development of Pulse?
In short, yes. I didn't develop all of it with AI, but a large portion was done with Claude Code Pro. That said, I've tested it thoroughly, fixed a lot of bugs already and can say it's in solid working shape. The positive side of this AI situation, is that I will be able to address your bug fixes sooner and the purchase of this addon again brings something back to actual developers. Not just myself.
What customizations can I back up so I don't lose my stuff?
Pulse allows you to backup the features and functions tied to your custom pie menus and custom notes to separate files so you can restore or duplicate your customization work. At the time of launch, your custom icons and custom scripts should be contained in one folder in the same location with the same folder name until a better solution is available in future versions of the addon. Your custom keybinds can be saved through blenders keybind profile system, and I'd advise you to take advantage of that when you're done settings the addon up the way you like it.
If I find a bug, how report it?
Directly in the addon, there's a bug reporting feature within the N panel, it's the bottom most drop down and the bottom most button. Click on that with the URL toggle button turned on, and your default browser will open with a short 5 question survey that helps me replicate your issue so I know how to fix it.
Why is it so cheap? There's so much stuff
At the risk of being cringey for a sec, I wanted to address this and figured you may be asking. The price does not affect the quality of the addon. I've priced it affordably so that everyone has a chance to use it while also giving something back to the blender developers and not have to worry about the risks of piracy. By purchasing the addon, a portion goes directly to blender development team, then some comes my way, but mostly I wanted everyone to have access to this. In some countries, this is the price of a coffee, in others, it could do a whole lot more.
