    I didn't know this kind of add-on existed.
    I am so happy using this.

    So happy to see this updated to Blender 4.x.! The addon is a gem, an effective time saver for any retopo workflow.

    I always love addons that adds to my established workflow instead of changing it, and this is an incredibly amazing tool with a lot of awesome features that does just that.

    This is *very* good indeed. BUT the first few minutes are pretty hard because there is so much extra detail in the documentation that it's quite hard to see how to actually start!

    It just needs something like:
    1. Start with a hi resolution sculpted model.
    2. Create a new mesh plan, go into Edit mode, select all the vertices and delete them. Set Object Properties, Viewport Display, In Front.
    3. Press Ctrl-Shift-Alt-X
    4. Left click four point as the corner of a patch then Right click the first point
    5. Press space.
    5. Right click one of the corners of the patch, then Right click another corner, then left click three locations away from the patch, then right click the first point.
    6. Scroll over two of the control points to reduce their count to 3 (You need the total of all numbers to be even to create only quads).
    7. Press A a few times to check the different arrangements.
    8. Press return to drop out of petik tool mode
    9. Use Sculpt mode Slide Relax and Shift Slide Relax, Shrinkwap etc. etc.
    10. Finally, try all the clever keyboard short-cuts mentioned in the docs.
    or similar, and/or a short video.

    As a former user of Hash animation Master many years ago, when I saw a tool similar to the 5 curve patches I did not hesitate to purchase the product without a moment's hesitation. It works flawlessly. Not only is it the best value for money Blender retopology addon, but it also allows you to to easily obtain beautiful four-sided polygon distributions without having to be a topology guru.
    Thanks.

      Thank you for the feedback. I will make a full video tutorial. Do you have anything in particular where you had issues, so that I know what to focus on? If you need further support, join the Discord channel at https://discord.com/invite/6cRVVmu344

    Almost not happy at the start as if this need a proper tutorial video as it is quite a hard start. But during the figuring out about the workflow. This is a 6$ addons I felt so much worth to spend. For the improvement is to advertise it in a way that new user know where to start like they don't know how to. Even start from the Shrink wrap and so on to begin and use your addon. BTW, I was using it with Speed Retopo then I use Petik and it works the best as a combination. Firstly I use SpeedRetopo as a quick setup then remove the first vertices and start to use the Petik instead. I think if there is a new feature that you develop you should charge more as it worth more over time. Should keep adding features that other Retopo software have and make them even simpler. Then this will be super Retopo Killer. Thanks
