May also work with Blender versions < 2.67 but not tested.

Troubleshooting

Add-on does not appear on the list.

Check if the directory add_mesh_triangles and the __init__.py file (inside) are copied to the proper directory. Also check if you are using a supported version of Blender (2.67 or later).

Add-on cannot be activated.

Check the python console (inside Blender) for any messages.

Changing the parameters does not update the triangle mesh.

Check the python console (inside Blender) for any messages.
