  This has sped up my workflow a ton. I'm a modeler, not a texture artist, so this helps me push all of my scenes further into realism. I just wish I could find any info about if this is going to get further updates with new textures or not. A few options for clean slat wood floors and walls would be fantastic for older house scenes

  Their new Beta system looks nothing like their menus on the older systems and the installation instructions are poor and incomplete. I am not able to use the product and will be requesting a refund

  The Beta phase is already over and we have fully transitioned materialiq to engon, try to give it a shot and get in touch. The UX is different, but we are trying to make the product better. Now you can search through all materials at once and see relevant results and even have the asset browser in a separate window. If you don’t like using it, we automatically add all the assets to the native Blender browser.

  For instructions, we would like to hear what isn’t unclear, we have quite comprehensive documentation on docs.polygoniq.com.

  The idea is great, the implementation is terrible
  You make a copy of the material, change various settings, but when you assign a new material, all copies fly off
  After updates to the addon or the blender itself, all materials turn purple, even the new addon engone allegedly does not help with the restoration of materials
  You write to the developers, they ignore and write that they don't understand what's going on
  They create new addons a lot and quickly, but they forget about the stability of existing ones
  Terrible, very terrible, I bought an addon for convenience, but in the end I got a problem(((

  Sorry to hear that, the support message got to slip through. We have the “Remove Duplicates” functionality that is automatically enabled to remove all .001, .002, … duplicate materials (that could be copied by accident) and merge them into the first one. This can be disabled in engon spawning opitons

  https://docs.polygoniq.com/engon/1.3.0/panels/engon/spawning_assets/?h=spawn+option#asset-spawn-options

  if you want to keep the duplicates. We prefer to keep this enabled and name materials based on the changes we do to the material to keep things tidy.

  Wonderful library of materials. Not only speeds up my workflow, but makes it fun adding materials to objects.

  I have been using materialiq for more than a year and I have to say the new asset manager is not what I expected and it's making my workflow very slow compared to the previous version, I need the option to add materials from the default material menu back, it worked perfectly, not sure why that was removed but if you can please bring that option back.

  The new 5.0 is so good it would really be insanely hard to not recommend getting this!!

  I have used ver. 5 for a while and am deeply impressed. The improvements are significant and I would recommend this addon every day of the week.

  Thanks Christer, we're glad! The good thing is that now it's much easier for us to implement new features and improve the system as a whole! A lot more is coming to materialiq in the future! All the best, Adam

  I would totally recommend this product, its a game changer for all visual artists. Revolutionnary fast to use, perfectly organized, smart system that doesnt make your file size extend to enormous size. As an visual artist for architects, I appreciate richness of material selection in default settings, but also how easily editable they are, you can create every possible version in couple second. I would also highlight the perfect HDR lighting, Forest steamy is the favorite. Materialiq from Poligoniq its not only material library you once download, its a concept that keep improving and offering something better every season, keep up with the time. Also the other products- Botaniq, Traffiq and Aquatig providing the same quality.

  I have this plugin since long time in version 4. I was quite disappointed of materials qualities. There were oversaturated and not nicely tiled specially ground materials. Idea would be to use those material in simple way out of box-to much setting makes you loose time in setups. It was easier to find something free and online in BlenderKit. I read about version 5 and this looks from material part much better but unfortunately doesn't work at all in Blender 3.3 and 3.4. Pluging after installation doesnt show any panel.

  Hi there Jan,
  We don't specify support for version 3.4 on the product page. However we use all our addons in Blender 3.3 on a daily basis, if you have problems with the panel not showing it is likely because you haven't updated our other addons before installing materialiq. We are improving how this update process works but for a while it's going to be a bit jaggedy. We're planning to deploy this improved update system in January/February.
