Install the packaged ZenMode ZIP without extracting it.

Requirements

• Blender 5.1 or 5.2.
• An editable mesh for an existing sculpt, or an empty scene for the ZenMode starter mesh.
• The packaged ZenMode ZIP.

Installation

1. In Blender, open Edit > Preferences > Add-ons.
2. Open the Add-ons menu and choose Install from Disk.
3. Select the ZenMode ZIP and enable the extension.
4. Select a mesh, enter Sculpt Mode, and use the ZenMode header or sidebar control.

First session

• B opens the searchable brush picker.
• Shift + Q opens the operations wheel at the cursor.
• Cmd/Ctrl + D (Divide) adds a level. ZenMode builds Zen Levels by default: subdivision levels built from ordinary meshes, so Blender sculpts dense detail on its fast mesh path. D and Shift + D go Higher and Lower.
• L toggles Stabilize Stroke for the active brush.
