Thirty-two tileable PBR materials: the plating, decking and street furniture of a sci-fi or industrial scene. They arrive as real materials in both engines - Unity materials for whichever render pipeline you use, and Unreal material instances off one master - so a surface is assigned, not assembled.

WHAT YOU GET

Plating: hull panel, light, dark, accent, worn, white panel. Decks: grate, fine mesh, diamond plate, hex floor, glowing hex in cyan, orange and green, rubber floor. Concrete and street: concrete, dark concrete, asphalt, warehouse floor. Metal: brushed steel, gunmetal, copper, verdigris copper, rusted plate, corrugated, rusted corrugated. Detail: hazard stripes, worn hazard stripes, circuit board in green and blue, carbon fibre, solar panel, vent panel.

The hull panels carry scattered inset greebles so no two panels repeat; the hazard stripes are scuffed back to the metal underneath; the glow hexes put their light in the albedo so they read lit even unlit.

UNITY

Unity 2021.3 or newer, and all three render pipelines are covered. A Unity material names exactly one shader, and Built-In, URP and HDRP use three different ones, so the pack keeps them apart rather than shipping sixty materials that bind to shaders your project has not installed: the Built-In materials sit ready to use, and URP and HDRP each ship as a nested .unitypackage you double-click if that is your pipeline. Nothing in the pack imports magenta whichever one you are on.

Textures come in with their import settings already right - normals flagged as normal maps, roughness, height and occlusion linear rather than sRGB - and the packed metallic-smoothness map is written at build time, so there is no smoothness-versus-roughness inversion to do by hand. A demo scene lays all thirty-two out on lit slabs.

UNREAL

Unreal Engine 5.8. One master material, M_SciFiIndustrialMaterialsVol1Master, with thirty-two material instances hanging off it - so you change the master once and every surface follows, and switching a material at runtime costs nothing. The master samples a packed ORM map, which is the layout Unreal's own content uses, so metallic, occlusion and roughness unpack from one texture read instead of three. Tiling is exposed on every instance, so a floor and a wall can share a material and still read at the right scale. A demo level lays the set out the same way the Unity scene does.

ANY OTHER ENGINE

The raw maps ship alongside both formats: 1024x1024 PNG, albedo, normal, roughness, height and ambient occlusion per material. Godot, or anything else that reads standard PBR maps, takes them directly.

SEAMLESS BY CONSTRUCTION

Every map tiles in both directions, and that is verified numerically at build time - the tile edge is checked against the interior before anything is written - not eyeballed. The five maps of a set agree with each other because all five are derived from one authored surface: the normals are the height's slope, the occlusion is its self-shadowing, the roughness is authored against the same masks.

METALNESS

Set per material rather than guessed from the albedo. Bare metal reads as metal - brushed steel, gunmetal, copper, rusted plate, corrugated, rusted corrugated, deck grate, fine mesh, diamond plate, vent panel - and everything else is a dielectric, painted panels included, because paint is a dielectric over whatever it covers.

STYLE

Stylized-painterly rather than photo-scanned: clean shapes, readable at a distance, consistent across the whole set - built to sit together in one scene without one material looking like it came from a different pack.
