Easeam earns its place in the superhive library as a focused set of seam-marking and unwrapping operators for Blender. This is the deprecated version covering Blender 3.0 to 5.0, distributed under the GPL license, with Easeam 2 available as its successor.
Easeam is a Blender add-on from Orcavia for marking UV seams and unwrapping meshes, aimed at speeding up the seam-marking part of the workflow. It works with Blender 3.0 to 5.0, is Blender extension compatible, and ships under the GPL license.
The add-on collects several seam operators. Mark Around Flat marks seams around linked flat surfaces, set by angle, with an option to grow the selection. Seam Edge Loop marks seams along selected edge loops. Tube seam adds seams on quad-based cylinder geometry, and Seam by Sharp Edge marks seams by sharp edge and/or angle. Auto Unwrap & Seam unwraps and marks seams using Blender's built-in Smart UV Project operator, while Toggle Mode marks and clears seams in one action. Re-Unwrap re-unwraps the whole mesh, including hidden geometry, while keeping the current selection, with an optional auto pack. Auto Seam by Y Verts marks seams on Y-shaped edges, and a UV Map Manager is included.
Every UI element carries a tooltip. Shortcuts can be assigned by right-clicking a button, and the N panel can be hidden in the add-on preferences and accessed through a shortcut or pie menu. A demo video is available.
Easeam - An Easy And Quick Way To Marking Seam (Uv Unwrap Tools) is best for blender artists who want faster UV seam marking and mesh unwrapping through dedicated operators.
Easeam - An Easy And Quick Way To Marking Seam (Uv Unwrap Tools) is completely free to download and use.
Easeam supports Blender 3.0 through 5.0 and is listed as Blender extension compatible. This build is the deprecated version, and its successor, Easeam 2, is available separately. If you are on a version within that 3.0 to 5.0 range, this release should install as an add-on. The developer flags this version as supporting Blender only up to 5.0, so for the newest compatibility details and the Easeam 2 upgrade, check the developer's page.
Easeam is listed as free in this catalog, so you can add it without a purchase here. It ships under the GPL license, as noted on the developer's page. Licensing and any upgrade offers, including the paid Easeam 2 successor, can change over time, so check the developer's page for current terms before you rely on a specific arrangement. For this deprecated version, the GPL license governs how you can use and modify the add-on.
Easeam lets you assign a shortcut to an operator by right-clicking the button you want in its UI. Once you are comfortable with the add-on, you can hide the N panel from the add-on preferences and reach the tools through your assigned shortcuts or a pie menu instead. Every element of the add-on UI also has a tooltip, so hovering your cursor over a control explains what it does. That makes it practical to work without the panel visible once shortcuts are set.
Easeam includes a Re-Unwrap operator that re-unwraps the whole mesh, including hidden geometry, while keeping your current selection intact. It also offers an auto pack option within that operator, though enabling auto pack may slow things down on a high-resolution mesh UV. Separately, the Auto Unwrap & Seam feature unwraps and marks seams using Blender's built-in Smart UV Project operator, and if the target already has edge seams, they will be replaced. Together these give you full-mesh and per-selection unwrapping paths.
Easeam's Tube seam feature automatically adds seams on cylinder geometry, and it expects the geometry to be clean and quad-based to work as intended. Beyond that, the Auto Seam by Y Verts operator marks seams on geometry with Y-shaped edges, usually generated by bevels with even segments, and it only detects similar geometry. Keeping meshes tidy helps these automatic operators identify the shapes they target. For a walkthrough of how the tools behave, a demo video is available.
