    One of my favourite Blender add-ons. I always use it for my assets and its extremely useful. Still haven't used it to its full potential. Never leave home without it. Highly recommended!

    Arguably, the most useful addon I've purchased for Blender (out of dozens). Being able to organize all of my different assets for immediate recall and based on various search parameters has been a game-changer for my workflow. It's hard to quantify how much time this addon has saved me.

    I’m a relative newbie to blender so was a bit hesitant to install what looked like a fantastic resource tool with my limited experience . Although I did have some installation issues, the excellent support team had me up and running in no time! Thanks for making the blender journey even better!

    I love this add-on. It is so useful. Making assets is a breeze. An excellent tool for keeping organized. Have a question?, the customer service from these guys is as excellent as their products. I highly recommend this! :)

    This addon is one of the best investments I have made here. I am amazed at how easily and intuitively I can create and sort asset libraries. Kept very simple and understandable. In addition, big praise should be given to the support, who always tries to find a solution. Simply great!

    I'll be completely honest.... This add-on was the limiting factor on when I upgraded to Blender 4.0. I tried to upgrade to Blender 4.0 pre-release a few times, but kept dropping back to 3.6 until they released the 4.0 version. That's how essential it is to my workflow! I don't use the ambientcg side as often, but I really do love how much easier it is to organize my asset browser with this! Plus, the team is awesome. When I've had problems, they have worked with me on discord, and if there was a bug, they had a fix for me really fast! The True-VFX team is completely awesome (to the point that I have collected most of their add-ons now!)

    Great add-on, I´m using it for about a year now. I mainly used it for renderen asset thumbnails, but recently to manange my libaries. Especially great when you have asset libaries were every asset has it´s owb blend file. Thanks for this addon :D

    Btw if you have some weird problems don´t hesitate asking them on their Discord, the support was really fast and helpful in my case :D

    The latest update is HUGE! Thanks for letting us legacy users have full access to all the new features. FBX and OBJ support is probably the feature that I find most useful, but access to ambient CG in Blender is also pretty sweet. Whats next? An AI that generates scenes from your assets based on prompts or images? :D

    tl:dr 100% worth it despite a few hiccups. It's an absolute time saver and well implemented.

    **Positives**
    -Saves a ton of time. Two tons maybe
    -Excellent implementation. I was a little hesitant to buy because I wasn't sure I wanted a whole separate asset browser but thankfully it doesn't work that way. It integrates heavily into the standard browser. Basically, it's a set of tools to enhance the built in browser and that's perfect! Exactly what was needed.
    -The processing of models is sublime and the Kitbash3D integration is super fantastic. Almost worth the price alone just for that. But pair the KB3D integration AND the AmbientCG textures? That makes this plugin 5 stars even with the few minor downsides(touchy material & asset importing)
    -Finally got me to process my assets folder which is full of useful stuff that never gets used because it's a hassle to get to. Not anymore. It was super fast to import years of accumulated assets that I now have easy access to.
    -Enables sorting and managing catalogs in a sane way. This is underrated I think.

    **Very minor negatives**
    -Material folders have to be clean and organized or the import will fail. Even then, the import has missed textures on some and grabbed them on others even though the folders and naming convention are set up exactly the same.
    -Model assets are broken up on import. If a file has an assembly of parts in a collection but they aren't joined, it will break them up into separate pieces. Not a big deal but still adds to setup if you want your assets a certain way and I think technical limitations are at play here. They aren't mind readers.
    -I might be asking too much but I would love it if it could process SBSAR files, either downloaded from Substance Assets or exported from Designer/Sampler. That would be amazing, because Adobe's plugin is garbage. But there's probably a technical limitation.
    -Documentation is under a tiny tab that's hidden at the bottom of the panel. Took me a minute to find the actual documentation and not just the year old Youtube videos. Should be linked in the docs tab in Blender Market too. But that's partly my fault.
    -You will want to spend 3 whole days downloading assets just so you can process them with a button click to "have for later just in case". This is probably a positive.
