Chocofur asset manager is almost perfect, but still, it had its cons: separate spaces for categories, and (i only assume) fixed categories. Asset flinger was nice, but the idea with previews was much better. None of the mangers I’ve tried was enough for me. Works with objects (blend,obj,fbx), materials, particle systems and hdrs.ĭid this one due to dealys for internal asset manager for Blender.


Would happily buy this on Blender Market for $30 if it did all this.Simple Asset Manager for Blender 2.8. This is just a wish list which would turn a fantastic tool into a perfect one. Would love to have more colour options when generating thumbnails if the asset has no material - perhaps using matcaps. This prevents duplicated materials which append always does. I create all my assets without a material so I can apply it when I bring it in to my scene. At the moment I'm limiting folders to 24 assets so I don't have to scroll.Ĥ. Thumbnail window that uses more of your screen space. An asset with multiple objects should come in to collection you have selected in outliner in its own sub-collection.ģ. Ideally, I want single objects coming in in your selected collection. At the moment it creates a collection called assets then a sub collection with the name of your asset. The ability to bring single objects into the collection you have selected in outliner. At the moment it only goes 2 deep - Category/Sub-categoryĢ. I'd love to have categories within categories within categories. The material library - add or replace materials even into the right slots if your object has multiple materialsġ. The ability to automatically generate thumbnails for assets that don't have them.Ĥ. The ability to append the asset or open it's file in a single clickģ. The structure - it reflects the folder structure you create in windows so it's really easy to re-organise your libraryĢ. Opens blend, obj, fbx from the same place.Simple, and small to modify code as you like. With Ctrl+scroll over the categories it is even faster.Dynamic, and custom categories: Except of material, and particle this addon will follow your library layout, folders and subfolders.I'm not a big fan of tabs in Tools ribbon, I needed it to be small.įocused on simplicity. Asset flinger was nice, but the idea with blender previews was much better/simple. None of the mangers I've tried was enough for me. Made for simplicity of usage (if you have any ideas how to delete some buttons let me know).

Works with objects, materials, hdr and particle systems.ĭid this one due to dealys for internal asset manager for Blender (no rush guys, I get it you will have more angles to look at the topic).
