Pablo Vasquez from #Blender team said that they are working with #GodotEngine to improve synergy between two apps to make a better #GameAssets pipeline!

#Godot4 #GameEngines

Don't forget to grab #FREE items on #EpicStore marketplace: this month they are mostly medieval, which is nice!

#UE5 #UnrealEngine #GameArt #GameAssets

Folks, imagine that we launch the Asset Store, focused on the Godot Engine.

— What would you like to see in it as a customer, as assets? (That can't be on a free built in system)
— What can you upload there? (As an asset creator)

⚠️ To highlight some limitations: it will be commercial and it will not be under the FOSS license to make it valuable and worthy for creators.

💡 Please, reply in the comments of our chat!

You can get all Megascans on your account while they are still free:

https://gist.github.com/jamiephan/0c04986c7f2e62d5c87c4e8c8ce115fc#file-run-js #UnrealEngine #UE5 #GameAssets

The script will add all 18800+ items to your account. And according to Tim Sweeney they will remain on your account after Quixel will become paid again in 2025.

Polyheaven just released the blog on their adventures in Africa: they were looking for deserted and harsh lands but found flowers and life instead!

Now you can use their new collection in games and media with stunning materials, HDRi maps, rocks, and plants.

I'm usually sharing free #GameTextures here, but hey, for $5 or $10 you can get over a 1000 texture sets from a solo artist Joao Paulo. They are CC0 and you get SBAR and 4K versions by paying (and can get 1K for free).

As Quixel and Epic Games promised, you can collect all megascans for free on their new marketplace FAB

💡 Amazing quick tip for game artists: better and more detailed assets will not lead to an overall pleasing image!

Can someone please tell this to all the "realistic games" creators?

"Realistic" scenes are usually noisy and frustrating to look at — players are no longer able to focus on a certain pattern or detail. And how do they fix it? YELLOW PAINT! 😵

Kind reminder that you don't have to buy commercial grade assets for games and 3D, there are many websites with CC0 assets!

Website of the day: https://polyhaven.com/ — 379 models, over 500 materials, and tons of HDRi backgrounds. Absolutely free, no strings attached.

And remember that "free" FAB and Quixel assets are not really free. Your license is limited by your income and you will have to pay if you earned more.

Your Unreal Engine assets are a time bomb and you don't own them.

Just to clarify: here's how Free FAB asset looks like, after it's no longer free. You can only claim it for your tier (Personal or Pro). The majority of you are at Personal tier and can only claim it, not the higher one.

Then after the item is no longer free and in case you get income OR FUNDING that will exceed your tier to the Pro one, you owe Fab $350 for this asset alone. And potentially thousands upon thousands for all their so-called "Free Assets".

It's a huge time bomb that is currently planted in thousands of indie games and will screw them up in the next couple of years.

Here is a Free 4K UV Mapping Texture (10×10 and 8×8 variants)

https://github.com/ArseniyMirniy/Free-4K-UV-Mapping-Texture-10x10 — drop it a ⭐ on GitHub!

The texture has soft gradient which makes working with it easier for your eyes even for hours in a row. I've tried to balance out the amount of color on the final image to preserve visibility of geometry details and issues that can be missed on pure gray or too vivid UV textures.

Just in case anyone needed this to prototype their Unity game: Free Lowpoly Asset Bundle!

There are tons of purchased assets in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, but no one offended and criticize the visuals of the game. It clearly shows own style and coherent artistic vision.

Just sayin!

I'll come back to it this weekend to add more variations for more use cases. And will then re-distribute it on Artstation and FAB too. As of now, your stars help me get noticed!

An artist noticed that someone uploaded 35000+ AI generated 3D models as separate FAB assets. They have millions of polygons each and distorted textures, so they are kinda unusable.
