    This is a lovely thing you must learn correctly to use before complaining it does not work

    You got to know what is UV and how to play with UV size etc but you can achieve fantastic results.

    What I like is that it's customizable a lot and it's truly amazing if you put the right amount of polygons and ... don't get mad if it lags quickly when using it. You have to get a good GPU to work with such amount of polygons but the displacement at the end is very nice .

    Just don't expect super high grade results with a common i3 and a gtx-1650 gpu.

    I personnally have a beefy PC and it's just ok so if you have a medium workstation ... don't expect renders under 1 minute and don't expect a super fast viewport. That said , with my 14700kf and 4080 Super GPU , it's very very smooth to work on.

    Nice work and sincerely for the price, I'd suggest anyone that wants photo realistic organic texture to look at this . I personnally used it mainly for Coral work because of the alien tubes it can quickly create.

    If the texture shows wrong, don't forget that you can play with the size of the UV in the shader menu and it will correct the thing. Don't panic if a texture shows all distorted. It's probably that you need to resize a bit manually and it's understandable as this is ORGANIC texture and it is more tricky to suit on a mesh. It takes a bit more ability to , let's say , use Extreme PBR but the result is fantastic.

    I love to see nice work like this and I was a bit sad for the author that had no reviews after a long 12 months.

    In fact , I bought precedently the PIX product and I was very very disapointed. We can't almost customize nothing... even the colors. It's just a set of premade textures we can't tweek a lot and ... it's of no use for pros. This addon is made for pros that wants very nice organic look ... and with subsurface scattering ... thanks god because in Pix , there wasn't a setting for that.

    Half of Pix's price but a way better product with way more settings to tweek.

    Good work and I wasn't solicited to give this review.
