Just a small update this time. I found a minor bug in finalise which affected torus seam finding.
There's good news for 64 bit Windows users as well. I've got a few confirmed reports that the 32 bit Windows version of Blender will work correctly with the latest Primstar 0.9.x releases on Vista 64 and Windows 7.
There's only Apple Mac that I don't know the current compatibilty of. As far as I know there is still a minor issue with Blender losing focus after using Primstar. So you have to manually select the Blender window again on Macs. If you don't see that behaviour please report that too. It may only be a specific version of Mac OS that's affected, so reports of it working correctly are welcomed too.

Error on Add, Mesh, Sculpt Mesh
First of all, congratulations for your job!
OS:Windows XP;
The last version it works is primstar_0.9.10.
After that...
Blender: 2.49, 2.49b
Errors:
primstar related:
add_mesh_sculpt_mesh.py: line 48, in from primstar import sculpty;
sculpty.py: line 41 in lib_dir=os.path.join
python related:
python26.zip\ntpath.py, line 96, in join TypeError: object of type 'None Type' has no len()
Thank you very much.
Fixed in next release
This is due to installing the scripts in the default blender scripts directory rather than the user scripts directory. 0.9.27 will support the scripts in either place.
I installed the scripts in
I installed the scripts in the user scripts directory and now it reports the following:
File "<string>", line1, in <module>
File "f:\Blender\Scripts\primstar\add_mesh_sculpt_mesh.py", line 50, in <module>
from Tkinter import *
ImportError: No module named Tkinter
No module named Tkinter
This should be included with the Python installation on Windows. On the Blender console you should see something like:
Compiled with Python version 2.6.2.
Checking for installed Python... got it!
If it says that Python was not found, you need to install the correct Python version for your Blender. It's normally ok to use one with a higher last digit. So 2.6.4 would be ok on my system, but 2.5.4 or 3.1.1 wouldn't work.
Python 2.6.4 iinstalled, Python... got it!, but...
Oh, I was working without Python installed.
I noticed that for some earlier versions I didn't need to have Python installed.
Ok, Python installed, "Python... got it!" ok, but now...
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
File "f:Blender\Scripts\primstar\add_mesh_sculpt_mesh.py", line 48, in <module>
from primstar import scultpy
ImportError: No module named primstar
Well, its working now!
I don't know how but the last error has gone...
Now its working fine.
Thank you once more!

Thanks for the bug report. I've updated sculpty.py to fix this, so it'll be fixed in 0.9.27
