Earns its spot in the Blender Extensions library as a cross-platform, GPL-licensed add-on that stays current, with its 1.1.0 release dated May 2025.
Make Planar Faces Plus is a Blender add-on from developer Anton-Florey, built around making mesh faces planar. Its current release is version 1.1.0, dated 28 May 2025.
The extension targets Blender 5.1 and newer. Downloads are provided for Windows, macOS on Intel, macOS on Apple Silicon, and Linux, each set up by dragging the package into Blender or installing it from disk. It is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, and this catalog lists it as free.
A demo video is available for a look before installing, and the source code is hosted publicly on the developer's page. Within the Blender Extensions library it sits at popularity rank 369. For the latest builds, full licensing terms and setup notes, the developer's page is the place to check.
Make Planar Faces Plus is best for blender artists on version 5.1 or newer looking to make mesh faces planar.
Make Planar Faces Plus is completely free to download and use.
Make Planar Faces Plus is built for Blender 5.1 and newer, so a 5.1 install is supported. Older Blender releases fall outside its stated compatibility range, so users on earlier versions may need to update before installing. The current build carries version number 1.1.0, last updated on 28 May 2025. If you run a Blender release at or above 5.1, the add-on should load without a version conflict. For the definitive compatibility notes and any newer builds, check the developer's page.
Make Planar Faces Plus ships with dedicated downloads for Windows, macOS, and Linux. On macOS there are two separate packages, one for Intel machines and one for Apple Silicon, so you can pick the build that matches your hardware. Each package is offered as a downloadable add-on that you drag and drop into Blender, or install from disk through Blender's extension preferences. This covers the major desktop platforms Blender itself runs on, letting artists across systems use the same add-on.
Make Planar Faces Plus is installed by dragging the downloaded package into a Blender window, or by choosing install from disk within Blender's extension preferences. Pick the download that matches your platform first: Windows, macOS Intel, macOS Apple Silicon, or Linux. Once the package is in place, Blender handles the rest of the setup, following the standard drag-and-drop flow used by Blender extensions. Full step-by-step guidance lives in Blender's own extensions documentation, which is linked from the download page.
Make Planar Faces Plus is listed as free in this catalog and is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later. That license governs how the add-on can be used, modified, and redistributed. Because licensing terms can change and the GPL carries its own conditions, it is worth reviewing the current details on the developer's page before relying on it in a project. The add-on's source is hosted publicly, in keeping with the terms of its open-source license.
