Cheers Ryan for a simple to understand explanation of the basics. I can see this being a massive time-saver once I've created some initial asset libraries. I must admit my Blender housekeeping leaves much to be desired and your tutorial has shown me how I can make things neat and tidy and (hopefully) keep it that way. One problem I did face when creating some assets was getting the orientation/origin correct so that objects were the right way up when I drag them into my scene. Perhaps that's something you could cover in a future video? Keep up the good work, love watching and learning from you.

You made it understandable. Thanks to this tutorial I've been going through all my files and turning the items that I could use in other projects into assets. There were a lot of files with one or two items so I just created an additional asset file like "Furniture 1 or Furniture 2" or Material 1 or Material 2 and appended the items I thought would be useful and moved that file into the appropriate file folder in the asset library I only needed to mark each item as assets and create subfolders where necessary. It worked perfectly. Not sure yet if there is a maximum number of subfolders allowed in in the asset library. Selecting "all" and hitting CTRL A and choosing Scale and Rotation was necessary.

Can you "put" or "send" and asset from your working file into your external library? That's the most obvious workflow to me but can't figure out how to do it

Thanks for this nice tutorial! I have a couple questions: -Does Blender create a main .blend file where it stores the assets or are the assets kept in their original .blend files? -If the latter is true, would you say it is better to have a single .blend file with many assets or many .blend files with a single asset in each one?

Yes, that is true. The assets are appended into the new file, from the other files. I actually have no idea if its better to have only 1 file, or more. Personally, I prefer to break it up into separate files.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi Ryan, I bought your Procedural Material Packs. How do you add multiple materials to an object using the library? It seems draging and dropping does not work in edit mode...

@RyanKingArt

Жыл бұрын

Hello. Thank you for purchasing. Because of how Blender's asset browser works, that is slightly tricky, but there is an easy work around. First, add two or more objects into the 3d scene, and add the different materials from the asset browser onto them. That will add the materials in the material dropdown, in the blend file, for when you want to add new materials. Then you can just go into edit mode of the object, and add the different materials into the objects material slots, and assign the different materials to the parts of the mesh, how you would with normal materials. Hope this helps!

What A Wonderful Tut!. it seems you cant make an asset from a multiple part model, only single objects, Big bummer.

@RyanKingArt

Very well done. Something I noticed on adding in some assets was there is a locator that is not set to the origin point on some of the models. For example; 5 items in a row all with the origins on local center. Each spread across the X axis. Dragging those in showed some of the objects null at random distances from the object origin. This isn't a huge issue but any suggestions?

Thank you for the great tutorial, I learned a lot 🙏🙏🙏, I have a question, Could you tell me what is the difference between "clear asset" and "clear asset (set fake user)" I read the manual and it says the second command "marks the data-block as protected" but when I perform the "Clear asset (set fake user)" it will delete the object from the asset browser and I can't find it anywhere 😓😓.

@RyanKingArt

Жыл бұрын

A fake user is basically making sure that the material isn't removed from the blend file, even if the material isn't on any objects. So If you clear the asset, but set a fake user, it should still keep the material data in the Blend file. so if you select and object and click on the material drop down, the material should still be there to add to objects.

When I mark and send assets to the browser they are reflected sideways or upside down. any solution? If I have an asset mase up of many materials am I required to first join them all before sending to library? Thanks much.

@RyanKingArt

Hmm... Maybe apply the rotation of the objects before you mark as an asset. Your second question depends on if your marking the object as an asset, or the material as an asset.

Hi Ryan,i have a problem i can set the assets but when i add my material with procedural geometry to an object i can't see the procedural feature on the object, it looks plain, when i check back to my blender file where i created the texture everything is fine.

So to be able to use the assets in the 3.0 Asset Browser will take a huge amount of legwork, as most of the items consist of multiple separate pieces that will have to be first joined to be one mesh, then the textures will have to be packed into the .blend file, which then must be copied over to the Asset Browser folder (which means double storage), and then set up using the multiple steps presented in the video. Times ~1000.
