Tileable modular game assets

Shaxes

Hey everyone, i am trying to create some modular pieces for myself and i am kinda stuck because the textures doesn't tile seamlessly when i connect the pieces, and i am not sure how to make the textures to tile well since its not a bricks texture.
Also, this is my first time trying to create modular assets with realistic textures
How would i go about making them tile well? Thanks!

Show examples of your work, both on the meshes, and flat. Can't help without visual examples.

What process did you use to edit the textures so far?

seams

uv unwrap (probably very bad )

Thanks for replying by the way! i use quixel DDO to texture my assets and blender for modeling

 Where is the texture?

here, and there's the seam if i duplicate the mesh and rotate it in order to connect it together as an example:

Keep your asset snapped to the grid and do U > Cube Projection.

For more complex shapes with round parts you can use the Object texture coordinate with Box Mapping and adjust the Blend at 0.1, then bake a diffuse map:

Your texture is not seamless. One way: use 3d paint to fix the seams. Another way, bake procedural textures like Linko says (less natural look though).
