Installation

BatchGenie has been verified to work with with Blender 4.2 on Windows & Linux (it should, in theory, work on MacOS as well).

To start using BatchGenie, you need to install the add-on in Blender. Follow these steps:

  1. Download the BatchGenie add-on zip file from the store you purchased it from.
  2. Open Blender and go to Edit > Preferences.
  3. In the Preferences window, navigate to the Add-ons tab.
  4. Locate the Add-ons Settings ( icon) in the top right corner.
  5. Click on Install from Disk and select the downloaded BatchGenie zip file.

Updates

BatchGenie respects your privacy. It operates offline and does not collect any data. Therefore, there is no auto-update functionality within the add-on. For updates, simply download the updated add-on manually from the store where you purchased it, uninstall the old version and reinstall the new using the same steps outlined in the instructions above.

Finding BatchGenie and Using the Documentation

BatchGenie is located in the N-Panel inside the 3D Viewport under a tab named BatchGenie, as shown in the image below. Alternatively, you can place it under the Tool tab by changing this setting in the Preferences.

Addon Location

Every feature includes hover-over tooltips, providing quick and detailed explanations directly within the add-on interface, making it easy to understand functionality without needing to leave the workspace. Some areas also have an extra icon, which opens a popup with additional information and a link to the relevant section of the documentation for further instructions.

For more comprehensive guidance, you can access the full documentation by clicking the image/svg+xml icon in the BatchGenie main panel.
