    @eric_pesty I wrote that version a while ago and no longer maintain it. But, it should still work fine for most cases. FeatureScript is pretty good at backwards compatibility.

    I have an updated version (its a paid version) that adds the ability to have the radius match faces for non-linear radius, and it produces slightly better quality curves. But if those don't matter, just use the original.

    Demo here:
