Adding a Material
To create a new material for the repository you must upload your material file and any related texture maps (compressed in a ZIP archive) and .jpg previews at the following specific sizes.
Category Preview- 150x150
Material Detail Preview- 400x400
Click on the File Upload link at left for file upload instructions.
If the Zip archive is too large to upload due to containing multiple files, you may upload each related file individually.
Use one of the standard material preview project files below to create your preview images.
File:ClothScene.zip
File:CubeScene.zip
File:GenericScene.zip
File:PlaneScene.zip
File:SphereScene.zip
Then open the link below, click edit and copy all contents.
Material Detail Template
Type in the name of the material in the Create/Find Page field, and click go. When given the option to create new page click “edit” .
Paste the default data into the empty page. Edit the page info as appropriate for your material, replacing the default material links with the names of your uploaded files.
Be very careful of the formatting, and spelling of all links.
When finished click “Submit”
You then need to create a link and a preview on the appropriate category page.
When editing the Category pages be careful not to edit any of the existing information.
You may copy and paste the lines from any existing material link to create a new link for you to edit.
