CC0 Assets Loader

A Blender add-on for loading CC0 assets (PBR textures, HDR images, etc.)

Goals

• Provide an easy way to define PBR textured materials
• Provide an easy way to load HDR images that can be used as background

Policies

• Manage assets (jpg, hdr, etc.) using Git LFS
• Follow the PEP80 style and 120-column limit
• Include PBR textures obtained from https://cc0textures.com/

Supported Blender Versions

• 2.80, 2.81, and later

Creating a ZIP File for Distribution/Installation

git clone https://github.com/yuki-koyama/cc0assetsloader.git --recursive
zip -r cc0assetsloader.zip cc0assetsloader -x '*.git*'
rm -fr cc0assetsloader

Download

ZIP file created using the latest release (v0.2): https://github.com/yuki-koyama/cc0assetsloader/releases/download/0-2/cc0assetsloader.zip

Known Issues

This repository is hosted on GitHub and uses its Git LFS functionality. The bandwidth is limited to 1.0 GB/month in its free plan, so cloning this repository probably fails due to the bandwidth limit. I am looking for easy and sustainable solutions.

Dependencies

• nodelayout (included as a git submodule)

License

All the Python codes (*.py) are distributed under GPLv3. The third-party asset files (assets/*) are distributed under CC0.

TODOs

• Support HDR images
• Provide material previews
• Allow users to add PBR textures and HDR images
• Create documentation
