Materialize -- An AMAZING Free Texture Map Generating Tool

Фильм және анимация

This newly released, completely free tool, enables you to quickly create several different material maps from a single image, with real time preview, editing and more.
Create Height, Normal, AO, Edge, Metalness and Smoothness maps in just seconds with interactive preview, all from a single source texture. Works very similar to B2M or ShaderMap, but completely free. Sorry Mac and Linux devs, this one is Windows only for now.

    ​@@TedThomasTT sure dude. sure. as soon as I finish my free lunch and hug the rainbow, ALL the tools will become free. if that was really the case, then what would be the point of your comment? "a free tool and a free video?" surely you meant "a tool like any other and a video like any other?" no? if all tools are free, it obviously boils down to their quality and user experience. why are you bothered with complaints then? you don't seem to understand the economy of gamedev very well. everything is free as in "free-to-play". after a while you either pay to stop grinding or you pay to overcome the paywall. if it's truly free it's either: a) shit, or b) just an entry level, and there are other means of monetization just around the corner. and I wouldn't be really bothered with paying per se, if the prices weren't tweaked in such a way to safeguard the elitism within the industry. as a result, good code is rarely, if ever shared, good tools are extremely pricey, highly-engineered solutions are trade secrets, patents or market commodities, and our coding paradigms are 40+ years old -- FOR A REASON -- so that nobody can surpass a productivity of a sweatshop with around 100 developers and artists on a regular payroll. and when coding games, you need to be a know-it-all who doesn't sleep, doesn't eat, doesn't let in any sorts of distractions, and basically don't have a life, if you really have to stay competitive. it's either that or you strike a gold vein which isn't a pragmatical or sane business practice. normal people can't do this without burning down, but industry will remunerate you somewhat, but won't treat you any better. on the other hand, they will never let go of any resources, tools, or know-hows to improve the dev cycle or quality of life for anyone. please don't get me started with your fallacies. the reason why we have an indie scene at all, is because one corporation plunged its dick into another, by intentionally cultivating a varied community of equally-apt developers that made another's corporation product range look obsolete -- all while some other bystanding corporations took notice, and made a mental note to steal from such "unprotected" community and never invest into RnD. it's basically a market move that has effectively evolved into "generous" opportunities for small people, and at the same time provided flesh blood transfusion to the increasingly stuttering publishers. like spermatozoids, some developers actually come through all of this as a winners. sadly, this ain't true for millions others. possibly because only a tiny margin is incubated to succeed (I know appstore does this) to fuel the flames of enthusiasm, just like a lottery winner would. and while all of that is happening, you are free to proceed living in a la-la-land.

    This looks super interesting. Lucky I had this in my suggested videos! After using it little bit it feels a bit frustrating. With little tweaks it would be really great. For example when I am adjusting a texture I'd much prefer to see the end result and not the texture I am adjusting. This makes it difficult to see how my changes are actually effecting the end result until I press show full material button. I don't really how care about how the height map itself looks. I only care about how the end result looks with that height map. Maybe the software can not do live editing of the textures but I'd really love if it could do that. Or maybe there is a switch somewhere to make it do that? Also the PCOS buttons should be replaced with either text or icons. I had no idea what the P or C buttons even do. Lots of free cc0 icon sets available in the internet, no need to use letters. The file open menu also can not handle it if you try to type your folder address into it and press enter (for example type e:\gamefiles\photos\manholecovers\). It just opens nothing. Instead you need to use the mouse to click though folders.

    That is exactly what I am thinking. Some even more complex suggestions would be to edit the Heightmap with brushes. Like you would edit Terrain for example. The manhole cover in this video is a little bit deformed in the middle. Would be nice to fix this with a brush. The next thing would be to create multiple heightmaps and blend them together. Like the detailed heightmap he created would be nice for the text on the manhole cover while the other heightmap was better in general. So it would be nice to create two heightmaps and then blend them together with a brush.

It is worth noting however that if the tool is given away for free, it might make sense to make the project open so that users technically skilled enough could deal with building and maintaining a release for a specific platform themselves.

    I've become a huge fan of Substance Painter for its ability to provide Photo Shop tools for painting 3D models. It's a really great tool. But! It's not really that great when you want to create realistic textures for wall materials and building parts (mainly levels for first-person interiors). I know you mentioned Substance B2M, but I really was hoping not to drop a bunch more cash at the moment. Then you show this. I can't even wait to play with this. I think I'm going to find all sorts of weird junk outside to combine and photograph so that I can throw them into this program just to see what comes out. Should be pretty cool!

    You can use “play on my mac” to run it on mac or create a small windows environment like with “wine” and also run it on mac, or if you want the long way you have virtual machine or maybe be you prefer the hardest way but most effective you go with boot camp and dual booting windows.

    Live Normal is a camera/photo tk material tool for your phones! This one can be sent to your google drive. Although it doesn't have many options...

    Wow! That is extremely impressive! Thanks for the review! There's another free software called "AwesomeBump" for generating bumpmaps. Open source as well which is really impressive.
