Description
QuickMat – Fast Material Setup System for Unreal Engine
QuickMat is a material setup toolkit for Unreal Engine designed to help you quickly apply and control textures from external libraries such as Fab, AmbientCG and Textures.com.
It's a streamlined material workflow toolkit designed to help beginner artists move from imported assets to production-ready results quickly and efficiently inside Unreal Engine.
Developed for lighting previs and virtual production environments, QuickMat simplifies common material setup tasks while still providing flexible artistic control when needed.
The system includes five purpose-built master materials covering the most common real-time production scenarios.
