    Show Assets by Author

    Shows all assets uploaded by the author of the selected 3D model.

    Replace Active Models

    Replace all selected assets with the last selected asset (active). If you use this option from the context menu, the target asset is downloaded and replaces selected assets.

  • Use the Wheel to scroll the results.

  • Click arrows on the side of the Assetbar for a jump to the next or previous page.

Auto-Map

Add cube mapping UV to the object after drag-and-drop. This allows most materials to be applied instantly to any mesh. BlenderKit generates a new UV map called 'automap' and doesn't replace your previous UV maps. It also resets the texture space of the target object to (1, 1, 1) which enables most procedural materials to have correct scaling.

Finished

For the public database, the asset should always be ready for rendering. Assets without materials aren't accepted into the public database.

面板

Sidebar ‣ BlenderKit ‣ Selected model

This panel is shown if you select a 3D model downloaded from BlenderKit. The name of the model appears below.

Bring to Scene

Bring the linked object hierarchy to a scene and make it editable. This is similar as if you would originally append the asset.

Ratings

You can rate an asset by giving it stars (with a maximum of 10).

Work Hours

Estimate how many hour you saved thanks to this asset. Rating helps BlenderKit distribute rewards to authors, and thus it is very important for us that you rate assets and do it in a fair manner.

Asset tools:
Open Authors Website

Opens the link that the author has specified in a web browser.

Show Assets by Author

Shows all assets uploaded by the author of the selected 3D model.

Replace Active Models

Replace all selected assets with the last selected asset (active). If you use this option from the context menu, the target asset is downloaded and replaces selected assets.

The same options are available in the Assetbar context menu.

Management Tools:
删除

Show Assetbar when Starting Blender

Shows Assetbar after the Blender startup.

Log Out

Log out from BlenderKit.

Your API Key

The BlenderKit API Key stores your API key that is automatically retrieved when you log in to the service and is used to connect to BlenderKit server. Don't change this value manually.

Global Files Directory

Global storage for your asset files. Set this up on a hard drive where you have enough space to store the assets.

Project Assets Subdirectory

Name of the subdirectory where your assets will be stored. For each blend-file where you use BlenderKit assets, a subdirectory will be created in the same folder. This enables you to compress the whole directory and transfer it to a render farm or another workstation.

Use Directories:

Which directories will be used for storing download data.

全局的

Store downloaded files only in a global directory. This saves drive space by storing assets only in one place. You have to pack your project carefully when transferring it to another computer, since the assets won't be in the subfolder of the current project.

本地

Store downloaded files only in a local directory. This option can uses more bandwidth when you reuse assets in different projects, since the add-on won't find assets that are already in different folders. However, it enables you to pack your projects easily.

Global and Subdirectory

Use both previously mentioned methods.

Use GPU for Thumbnails Rendering

By default the CPU is used so that the user can continue their work while the thumbnail is rendered in the background.

Asset Thumbnail Size

Size of the asset thumbnails in the Assetbar.

Max Assetbar Rows

Number of rows in the Assetbar.

Show Tips when Starting Blender

Show tips when starting Blender.

Show BlenderKit Search in 3D Header

Show an extra search field in the header of the 3D Viewport. This enables a quick access to the search when the Sidebar is hidden.
