  I've used this on ten or so projects and it is great. I have two other material add-ons, both on Blender Market, and the texture resolution on one is only 2K, good for rough concepts and distant objects (very distant) and the other is mostly procedural I think there were 12 video tutorials on how to use it and after I used it on one project I forgot most of it and it was just way too complicated to learn it again (I got a material add-on for simplicity). MaterialIQ is the answer to both problems beautiful 4k textures that can be set all the way down to 512, 1K, 2K whatever you need and it's as simple as choosing category and then clicking on material and then OK and it's applied. I haven't had a crash with it and it has always worked, not one time, that I can remember, has it not worked exactly as it's supposed to. This is one of the most polished and professional add-ons I've used (and I'm a add-on junkie I just counted 54 on Blender Market alone, I need help). I don't hesitate to recommend this add-on.

  Been using in my last project, great for architectural work, easy to use and a lot of material customization.

  Wonderful addon. Ease to use, quality materials and the ability to easily change size of textures. Is there a possibility to expand the library of materials in the future?

  I love the materials and would love to give it a 5 star, but using them slows my viewport to a crawl. I have a 4070ti so I don't know what it could be.

  Hello I recently bought and am using materialiq. It is good though I have two complaints:
  1. It slows significantly down my viewport if i use blender version 4.2 or 4.22 LTS you must have a bug in there, all your materials work ok in blender 4.0 version.
  2. I also lost some materials because it tries to tidy them up sometimes too fast. It is unintuitive to make variations of your materials sometimes. Or i just need more time using it.

  Materialiq was worth the price I bought it for. The addon did not receive new materials, but when I put it into the price/material ratio, it was really worth buying. Now they come with the fact that the price will depend on the quality (resolution), which I personally do not like to pay for the same materials over and over again. I would rather accept the final version. If they plan to do 16k, offer it now. Or if they don't want to offer free updates, I'd rather accept the materials pack, where I'll see the materials I'm paying for. Nothing from this is yet a reason for me to detract from the 5/5 rating, but the fact that they decided to move the addon from the menu to Npanel is the worst news. I assume that they did it because of the new functions, but at the moment the addon does not offer me the possibility to have other addons open in the n panel and open materialiq at the same time (archipack + materialiq+asset manager). So the addon that I used in the concept phase completely fails and I didn't notice if it works in the asset manager, because it doesn't work on my main PC, a collision with another addon. Unfortunately, I have about 40 addons and I don't want to look for which one is to blame, so I stay at 4.6. And of course they have great support, so 5/4 for me, if it's possible to use materials and hdri from assetmanager, it's 5/5, but I can't find out now.

  Hi there Pavel, Regarding the N panel we're planning to offer the possibility of choosing where the addons show up. Regarding the Asset Browser we've just released the version 5.0.1 which supports that a week ago. When it comes to 16k, unfortunately our hardware can't handle 16k right now (it would overload our build system) and in any case it will take a long long time before that is really viable (and necessary) - also the ZIPs would be 90GB! All the best, Adam from polygoniq

  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.

  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.
