yeah, if you select a material in the mtl. editor and hit the "X" icon button just below all the preview spheres, it'll probably ask you if you wanna reset the material in just the editor, or in the scene too - just make sure you choose the option to only reset the material editor material! then bingo you can make a new…
I'm looking for better control of how instances are made/broken within material ingredients in 3ds max. Like I want to change the UV channel for a map that's being used by multiple materials, or whatever. Instances save me time. If when I make a new material I instance it, then use Make Unique on it, well it breaks ALL the…
Ah well I hope your game art program is way better than my game programming program. :) That said, what you need most when dealing with materials is good sold maths skills. Specifically geometry, algebra, linear algebra, and some very light calculus doesn't hurt. Its not as scary as it sounds though. ;) What you need just…
I was tired of the redwax material. So here are some new materials i made, the most of the them are based on the redwax material. Materials.zip Its quiet easy to change materials or do new ones with matcap. Would be cool to see some of your materials in here.
Hey everyone, I'm trying to add some custom vegetation. So I exported my tree from max, added it in the editor as a brush and created a custom material for it.

Current materials: Hello again Polycount! I wanted to try my hand at making some Substance Designer materials to add to my portfolio because I think materials are fun and I've been very inspired by some of the materials I've seen you all making on here. So, I started off with a brick material, because everyone's gotta have…
Mostly been optimizing. Reducing to a few materials and using a texture palette approach. As well as just some normal editing for the face. Still has some issues at the extreme angles. I also gave her a fake eye glow. But not sure if it comes off as creepy like the Sythns in Alien Isolation. Wasn't able to upload videos so…
My goal is to create a master material that can conquer a large range of different materials within ue4 via the "material instance" system that is set up within the engine. This way one material can house most of the parameters I need to make most any environment material I need to make while only costing one compilation.…
