The Curve To Polygons tool allows to quickly create simple pipes / cables with adjustable parameters and a basic UV mapping.

The tool also allows to extend NURBS curves by using the extrude function so you can position your control vertex with the manipulator in 3D space.

Single-click pipes

Convert your curve paths to polygon pipes in a single click. You can create and adjust multiple pipes simultaneously.

Extrude curves

Extend your curve shapes with the extrude function. Deleting a control vertex selects the previous vertex so you can delete multiple vertex in chain.

Create Curve From Pipe

Generate a curve path based on your pipe geometry and binds them together with a wire deformer.

  • Take a look at the Tool Demo page or at the Usage documentation for the complete list of features.

Tool Location

The tool can be found in the GENtools menu under Surfaces → Curve To Polygons.
