How to use this website

The main goal of this website is to provide an easy way for Material Maker users to share their materials, nodes, environments and brushes.

Importing materials, nodes, environments and brushes

To import materials, just use the File->Load material from website menu item

To import nodes, use the Browse community nodes button at the bottom of the Library panel

To import environments, use the Download environment button at the bottom of the Environment editor window

To import brushes, use the Browse community nodes button at the bottom of the Brushes panel

Please note that it is not necessary to login or even create an account to import assets.

Each asset has its own page (that can be shown by clicking on its name in the material list), that mentions the Material Maker release that was used. You may want to update Material Maker before trying to load a material created with a newer release.

Sharing assets

To share a material, a node, an environment or a brush, it first necessary to create and account (using the Register button) and log in Material Maker using the broken link button in the status bar.

To share materials, just use the Send material to web site button.
This button opens a form where you can specify a name for your material, a few keywords, a license and a description, and submit it.
