![]() ![]() Roughness, AO, and Metalness maps aren’t accessible for the Upload Image feature to free accounts, but it’s still enough to work with. Once you’ve uploaded your image, WithPoly’s AI lets you make it seamless, upscale it, and generate normal and height maps corresponding to your image. A “Make Patches” tool lets you upload an image of your choice and write a prompt, essentially guiding the AI to make ‘similar’ images… or the “Upload Image” feature lets you directly convert your image file into a material. WithPoly lets you upload your own image files and turn them into materials too. You don’t need to rely on just the AI-generated image for your ‘materialistic’ needs. Once generated, you can either tweak them further or download the files as a ZIP package that you can then use in KeyShot.Ĭreating a material using text on WithPoly Image-to-image Material Builder Alongside the color map (or Albedo in rendering terms), WithPoly also generates a normal map, roughness map, height map, ambient occlusion map, and a metalness (or fresnel) map. ![]() Not only does it create the color map file, but it also ensures it’s high res (up to 2K for free accounts), seamless, and tiled onto a sphere to preview. The AI doesn’t just create an image the way Midjourney or Stable Diffusion does, it’s built to create contextual images that perfectly match your needs. Edit the prompt to make it as specific or vague as you want, choose from the various material types, and hit enter to make the AI generate 4 textures that closely match your requirements. If you don’t find anything satisfactory, a Generate button right beside the search button turns your search query into a text prompt. Open up the WithPoly website and you’re greeted with a search box that lets you search its library for any textures that match your requirements. ![]() A $20 per month upgrade to its ‘Poly Infinity’ tier gives you access to a host of other features, including 32-bit exports, 8K resolution image generations, and a royalty-free commercial license to your materials, which you can then sell online.Īn example of an AI-generated material from the WithPoly gallery Text-to-image Material Builder Most of WithPoly’s core features are free, and you can download materials made by other people too from WithPoly’s extensive gallery. Instead of spending hours browsing the internet or editing images to make them seamless and extract surface and depth information, WithPoly lets you create your own material assets in a matter of minutes, giving you exactly the kind of materials you need for your renders, whether it’s something as basic as cracked concrete, or as obscure as giraffe skin. The website will generate the texture, let you edit it, upscale it, make it seamless, and even generate color (albedo), roughness, normal, and displacement maps based on the material you create. Using the power of AI, the service lets you either type to create materials from scratch, or upload images and turn them into materials with a few simple steps. WithPoly is a freemium, easy-to-use website that lets you create your own KeyShot materials using either a text prompt or an image prompt. One option is to scour the internet, buying seamless textures and materials from places like CGTrader or Gumroad, or using libraries like PolyHaven or KeyShot Cloud for free but limited resources… Another alternative, however, is to create your own assets using AI text-to-image or image-to-image tools, like WithPoly. To make the material look realistic, you also need to make sure your image texture is seamless and is supplemented with other data, like reflectivity, roughness, bump/displacement, ambient occlusion, and a bunch of other factors that add literal depth and realism to your materials. Making your own materials can be a bit of a hassle, given that you need more than just a hi-res image. ![]()
