PaintForge V1 is a runtime mesh painting toolkit for Unity that enables artists and developers to paint, copy, and customize 3D objects directly during gameplay or in interactive applications.

The system supports flexible color and material workflows, including UV painting, vertex-color painting, reflection, emission, metallic and smoothness control, brush modes, texture sampling, full material copying, and object painting.

Key features:

• Runtime painting on 3D meshes

• UV and vertex painting workflows

• Adjustable brush size, softness, strength, and modes

• Color, reflection, emission, metallic, and smoothness painting

• Copy colors and surface properties between objects

• Copy complete materials and textures

• Sample multiple colors from textures

• Paint complete objects with a single interaction
