Poly Haven Assets Add-on

A Blender add-on to integrate our assets natively in the asset browser.

Features

1. Downloads all assets from Poly Haven, and list them under their respective categories in the Asset Browser.
2. Lets you swap the resolution of an asset to higher/lower resolutions any time after import (most are at least 8K).
3. Set the texture mapping scale to the correct real-world size according to the surfaces you've applied it to.
4. One-click setup of texture displacement with adaptive subdivision.
5. Simple HDRI rotation, brightness, and color temperature sliders.

Installation

This add-on is meant to be purchased on Superhive or through Patreon to support our work making new assets.

Help make this add-on free for everyone!

While all our assets are 100% free to download, it costs us a lot to create them. By selling this add-on, we've been able to grow Poly Haven, creating over 1000 new assets and improving the quality of our work.

However, we don't want to sell this add-on forever, we want to focus on free content and open access.

Support us on Patreon with just $5 per month to get this add-on and help unlock it for the entire community. Once we reach 5000 patrons, it will be released for free to everyone. Until then, it's available only through Patreon, or by purchasing it on Superhive.

3. Click the Fetch Assets button in the header of the asset browser.
4. After the initial download (which currently is around 3.3GB), simply drag and drop the assets into your scene.
5. We release new assets almost daily, so you can click that Fetch Assets button any time to download new assets.
