MecaMatUpgrader for Mecabricks Advanced (Blender 4.0+)
Added 2024-09-02 10:12:52 +0000 UTCThe best free and publicly available materials for CG LEGO
MecaMatUpgrader is a custom made addon and works as an expansion of the Mecabricks Advanced material in Blender. (This addon will NOT work with Mecabricks Lite!)
Our addon allows you with a single click to upgrade your current Mecabricks Advanced materials in any project at any time, and make them instantly more realistic! A lot of research has gone into how we can reproduce the flawless (or more flawed) materials as seen in the LEGO movies, but also work with what we have as well as making it applicable to any Mecabricks part.
All Features:
- Print degrading + distortion
- Replaced roughness maps + added grease
- Replaced all imperfection bumpmaps
- Torso arm wear streaks
- Rings around tip of arms
- Streaklines for hands
- Legs wear streaks
- Surface deformation and uneven surface
- Microscratches
- Vertical Streaks
- Edge wear
- Edge color fading
- Dirt layer + dirt in creases
- Direct control of the built in Mecabricks print height slider
(Almost all of these features can be seen in the cover photo!)

Special thanks to Stargorithm for kickstarting the addon in the the beginning phase, and realizing the idea of this whole thing becoming an addon!
