Feature Highlights

Pixel Perfect

All materials in the asset pack are hyper-realistic but also ready to use on objects with big surface area as they tile perfectly.

8K textures take up to 16x more VRAM space than 2K textures

• With the great power of 8K textures there must also come great responsibility - polygoniq, 2022
• Make sure to keep your scene optimized. Choose the best resolution of materialiq textures for your use case.

Variety

Over 330 optimized materials that will cover all of your texturing needs.

Sorting

materialiq is all about ready-to-use high quality materials. You can choose from multiple categories, like Fabric, Transparent or Concrete. Want to have look at all the materials?

All materials are easily accessible through the engon asset browser.

Material Naming

All materials have index letters based on their category and a numbers to keep them in order. The numbers also make it easier to identify materialiq materials in projects with your own materials so nothing gets mixed up.

Use material indices to speed up your workflow in materialiq

It is much faster to find the right material if you remember its index. You just type "WD" when you want a wood material and that gives you a list of all wooden materials. Alternatively if you remember the exact index, let's say "WD010", you can just type that to get "WD010_DECIDUOUS-Oak-Dry-Cracked" material straight away.

Easy Customization

All settings and tools for creating and managing different variations of your materials are available in the addon menu located in the N-panel. If you prefer to use the Shader Editor, we made sure that node groups across materials are unified.

Renderers supported out of the box

• Cycles: this is the main renderer we optimize for
• Eevee: most of the assets will also render well with Eevee

Stable, LTS Blender versions supported
