Overview

Frustrated with slow playback? Bogged down in edit mode?

Boost your Blender with this add-on and streamline your creative flow! 👍

The script automatically optimizes when it is needed, for better performance and fluency on complex models and scenes.

It's depends on your scene, but typically you'll get 2x-10x boost in many scenarios!

Supported Blender versions

Blender 3 and 4 series

Automatic Optimization

This addon automatically does the job when you are getting into the following modes:

• Animation Playback
• Pose/Edit/Paint/Sculpt modes (configurable)
• And you'll get much faster FPS in these modes! (depends on complexity of your scene)

When you exit from these modes, this addon set all things back to present.

Temporal Simplification

This addon temporarily changes several settings when it's needed:

• Modifier Hide modifiers not in the white list (major impact on complex models)
• Material Mute normal map nodes in materials (major impact)
• Mesh Settings Disable auto smooth on mesh objects (major impact on high-poly models)
• Rendering Settings Adjust rendering settings such as AO, SSR, shadow bit depth, etc (moderate impact on large scenes)
• Viewport Settings Adjust viewport settings such as playback target (minor to moderate impact depending on scene complexity)
• Shading Settings Change shading type to SOLID (minor impact on recent GPUs in Eevee, major impact in Cycles)

Customize for your needs

Settings panel accessed form Simplify button.

And there are other settings that have minor impact on fps, which you can adjust selectively.

Happy Blending!
