Matlib

A material library built to make Unreal look real.

Explore the library

Elevate your assets

Make your textures pop. Every shader in Matlib earns its place by making your assets look finished from any angle. We build with the latest Unreal tech, from layered vertex blends to puddle-ready surfaces, so your assets always look production-ready.

Full control through material instances

Adjust materials without needing to recompile, on the fly. You can see changes instantly. Faster iteration. Zero downtime.

Material instance controls ready for instant adjustments

Ray-tracing and real-time ready

Our materials hold up where it matters most: cinematic lighting, game performance, and VR presence. Built for every real-time scenario.

Real-time ready materials under cinematic lighting

Built with Unreal Engine’s blueprint system

Drag, drop, and customize. Every shader is made in Blueprint, ready to plug into your pipeline. You don’t need a single line of code to make it your own.

Unified PBR

Blend metal-rough and specular in one setup. Control how light hits, reflects, and fades across your surfaces. Materials reflect and fade like real metal, paint, and glass.
Surface Control System demonstrating advanced material layering

VERTEX PAINTING

Paint and blend directly in Unreal. Add water to asphalt. Crack concrete. Create oily puddles that shimmer under light. Blend terrain and surface materials seamlessly in a single workflow.
Vertex painting system blending multiple material layers procedurally

Props and tileables

Shift hue, saturation, and lightness without leaving Unreal. Add trims, offsets, parallax, or bump depth. Your props stay detailed without extra geometry.
Dynamic material instance controls with real-time parameter adjustment

Cloth

We offer ways to recreate realistic sheen and fiber response inside Unreal. Fabric looks soft, catches highlights, and moves with believable light.
Advanced cloth shader with realistic sheen and fabric rendering

Clearcoat

Push Unreal’s clearcoat further. Add scratches, wear, and age. Make paint look showroom-new or sun-faded and worn.
Advanced clearcoat with controlled weathering and imperfections
