About Poliigon

Ready to use with all maps included. Quality tested for sharpness, tileability, and accurate PBR maps. Quality tested models, ready to use in 15 native formats. Find a new style for your next project with a range of 360 sky captures and studio lighting setups. Get up-close realism with imperfection maps that mimic microscopic detail. No more tedious nodes set up. Provided plugins convert the maps into a shader with the right settings for your software.Some materials in our Poliigon library are tagged with the "Game Ready" attribute, but what does this mean? It simply means that the resolution sizes of these materials are set to powers of two, such as 1024, 2048, 4096 etc. They are not necessarily square though, as some may be 2048x1024 for example. Occasionally, you may find a "Game Ready" texture that has a resolution size that is not exactly set to a power of two size though these textures can still be used for game engines when you resize them to a power of two resolution size.

Bforartists
Bforartists is a complete, free and open source 3D suite to create 3D content. It offers you the full 3D art pipeline to create game graphics, prerendered movies and stills. From modeling, sculpting, texturing, rigging, animation, rendering, up to post processing. Bforartists stands for Be For Artists. A reminder to develop for the user, not the programmer. Bforartists is a fork of the popluar open source 3D software Blender. Developed by some 3D enthusiasts to make Blender even better. The primary goal of the Bforartists fork is to deliver a better graphical UI and a better usability. This means a complete switch in the usage philosophy. Away from the hotkey and speed centered usage. Towards a user friendly and intuitive graphical UI. Bforartists is fully compatible with the Blender files and addons. Every feature that works in Blender should also work in Bforartists. And we are always up to date with the newest Blender version. The toolset is the same.

Direct3D
Direct3D
Direct3D is a low-level API for drawing primitives with the rendering pipeline, or for performing parallel operations with the compute shader. See the content below for more information. Direct3D 12 provides an API and platform that allows your application to take advantage of the graphics and computing capabilities of PCs equipped with one or more Direct3D 12-compatible GPUs. You can use Microsoft Direct3D 11 graphics to create 3-D graphics for games and scientific and desktop applications. DXGI handles enumerating graphics adapters, enumerating display modes, selecting buffer formats, sharing resources between processes, and presenting rendered frames to a window or monitor for display. HLSL is the high-level shader language for DirectX. Using HLSL, you can create C-like programmable shaders for the Direct3D pipeline. The DirectDraw surface file format (DDS) supports uncompressed and compressed (DXTn) textures, mipmaps, cube maps, and volume maps.

Renderpeople
Renderpeople
Posed People are static scanned 3D People. Each of them portrays a specific natural pose that has been scanned in our state-of-the-art 3D scanner. The geometry and high-resolution textures of all Posed 3D People have been manually refined to match the vividness and authenticity of real humans. Posed People include pre-built materials and are ready to render. The free models match the same level of quality and functionality as the 3D Posed People in our online shop. Rigged People are movable and posable scanned 3D People. Each of them includes a skeleton that has already been bound to the geometry (also known as skinning). Our 3D Rigged People can be easily posed or animated in any way you like, making them versatile for use in many fields of application. Motion capturing data can also be applied to quickly create realistic movement. The free models match the same level of quality and functionality as the 3D Rigged People in our online shop.

    "Scam with credits"

    Posted 2024-12-31

    Pros: Great quality images, you can decide the size of the file you just bought and also the 3d models are ready to set up.
    The web design is nice, you understand very quickly where to move.

    Cons: They force you to pay monthly, otherwise they steal your credits.
    They don't respond to any messages.

    Overall: I had been using the program for 2 years and had accumulated points. However, I didn't use all of them because obviously I'm not going to download the materials just for the sake of it. So I paused my subscription so as not to continue increasing my amount of credits. What happens? I used Poliigon again weeks later and I see that I have 0 CREDITS, the site takes away every point you had paid, it is as if I bought a tool, left it at my house and the manufacturer comes in and takes it away for not using it when I already I paid for it.
