Support Asset Browser in Blender

Moving each asset into a collection in the .blend file would enable support for the asset browser. This would be awesome. I suspect you could even write a Python script to do this pretty quickly, since each asset is already contained within a null.

We just launched our own asset browser with a native Blender integration! This should make browsing and using KitBash3D assets much easier:

Honestly this is so frustrating without asset features I wish I didn't buy it. I can not buy from this company again until I can get this resolved or a workaround, none of the methods I have read below seem to work. The models are quality but you might as well build them yourself with the head ache it is to use them. I will not be recommending kitbash.

PDF catalog of the models

It would be nice to have a pdf catalog with renders of each model in the kit to help jog your memory when deciding what assets to migrate into your scene. Might be good to post on the web too to help generate sales.

We're currently working on developing an asset browser of our very own! Keep an eye on this post for status updates as we progress.

Lib4D/Asset Browser

Ryan Dean

Like the Blender Asset Browser suggestion; including a .lib4d collection of the individual models. Right now each kit I need to reset the coordinates, put them into a Library, and for Octane render out individual thumbnails for every object (In R23. Unsure if 26 ~ 2023 properly render Octane thumbnails or not)

This is a must have imo!

Hey, I've gone ahead and wrote a script for you to handle this. Let me know how that works.

I've seen another script floating around Stack overflow, but it doesn't work with the current version. This script should work, but it's quite a heavy operation. It needs to apply transforms of each object.

Travis Szabo: Thanks! I will try this out.
