  The team at BeFX have created a really amazing product that I would say rivals Substance Painter especially when you consider the cost. With their latest release they have a truly solid product that has enough features to create anything you can imagine. Their product support is truly amazing; they are always helpful and if a bug is found they fix it quickly. I would recommend it to anyone who is tired of paying far too much for other solutions.

  Just started using this plugin. Being new to Blender, sculpting, UV unwrapping, and texturing, I know enough to be dangerous, thanks to YouTube. With this addon I was able to take a high res mesh project / bake textures onto an extremely low res mesh with UDIM UV tiles. I was able to paint a 17 layer realistic skin texture just as one would with Substance Painter. I did run into issues, but that was 100% me not knowing what I was doing and using Blender 5.2. Runs smooth in Blender 5.1. When I needed help I ran they were very quick to help out on Discord. Great plugin, great developers!

  As an intermediate Blender user of 2 years, I use a mix of shader nodes and a couple of add-ons to paint my scenery models for the X-Plane flight sim. This has been satisfactory, but I wanted more control over the material for added realism. I didn't want Substance - hate Adobe's pricing model - but wanted its functionality.

  I tried the usual Blender texturing paint add-ons but got frustrated by lack of tutorial support and limited/complex workflow.

  MatPlus has been on my PC for 4 months. What attracted me initially was its layering system, sophisticated material capability and huge library of smart materials and masks.

  I understood the basic approach - you have to get used to the idea of 'pre-baking' before you texture to prepare the ground for application of your materials, something that confused me early on. The MP team I think assumed its customers would be experienced Substance users, but I'm not and think many potential buyers haven't used Substance so don't understand its workflow. As a professional trainer myself I understand how vital it is to provide effective training in the basics, a lesson the MP team have taken on board.

  After joining its Discord I found a very conducive discussion with a healthy responsiveness from the MP devs. MP is a work in progress but experienced Substance users find it relatively straightforward to become productive - at a fraction of Adobe's price -with superb looking results. The team are good listeners, taking on board feedback and adapting both the product and their video tutorials. I understand a new, updated set of tutorials is planned for novice/intermediate users, which I look forward to.

  MP shows great potential - version 1.3 is in the wings and IMHO shows huge potential as a Substance alternative for both pro and amateur. I'm happy to recommend it and would advise to join the Discord, whose link is provided when you download.

  This is a painting add-on inspired by Substance Painter, packed with a host of appealing features, including layer management.

  One of the most remarkable features is the ‘Material Destruction’ function, which seems designed to ruin all your hard work. Without any warning, a Matplus material you’ve spent ages creating is suddenly destroyed by a mysterious error and turns pink.
  It seems the developer is particularly keen on turning materials they don’t like into a shade of pink.

  If you possess more patience than players of FromSoftware’s high-difficulty games like Dark Souls or Elden Ring, and are looking for a truly hellish experience, you absolutely must buy this.

  I used MatPlus on a recent project and was really impressed with how smooth the workflow was and how good the results turned out.

  I own several other addons in this category, and this one stands out as the best of the bunch. Definitely worth the price.

  Amazing quality! Lot's of testing done already, I can fully say how well done this addon is. The layer system ,the amazing value of the Smart masks and materials. There is no better way to texture in Blender that emulates the SP experience. Fully recommend and I hope to see the addon and the community behind it grow

  Thought i got burned again, this was not the case, this addon is one of the most powerful and useful tools i have ever used with blender. It has some sharp corners that need some guard rails on.

  I just started to learn and explore the addon. There is so much potential. I already textured a whole character with it and learned a lot in the process. The awesome bake functionality and texture export are working a lot better than say "simple bake". At first the addon feels a bit overwhelming and i had to try out what to do with the white mask and black mask and filters etc. I still don´t understand all this, but i was able to texture my model and had a lot of fun. So, im giving 5 stars :)

  Excelent addon and the best alternative for Substance Painter directly inside Blender.

  It's a really great add-on with logic inspired by Substance Painter. Some features are still missing, but I believe they will appear over time. I hope that more people will become aware of this add-on because it deserves further and faster development.
