This button will start a new Blender instance and open the blend-file that contains the asset.In the background Blender will keep monitoring that new Blender instance;when it is quit, the Asset Browser will be refreshed to show any updated assets.
Panel for viewing and editing asset tags.These do not have any meaning to Blender, and can be chosen freely.When using the search field to filter the assets, those assets whose tags (partially) matchthe search term will also be shown.

As a general rule, an asset can be used by dragging it from the Asset Browser to the desired location.Objects and worlds can be dragged from the Asset Browser into the scene,Materials can be dragged onto the object that should use them.Geometry nodes can also be dragged onto objects to add a Geometry Nodes Modifier.The use of pose assets is different, and is described in Pose Library.
All of the asset and all its dependencies will be appended to the current file.Dragging a material into the scene three times will result in three independent copies.Dragging an object into the scene three times will also result in three independent copies.
The first time an asset is used, it will be appended, including its dependencies,just like described previously. However, Blender will keep track of where it originated,and the next time the asset is used, as much data as possible will be reused.Dragging a material into the scene three times will only load it once,and just assign the same material three times.Dragging an object into the scene three times will create three copies of the object,but all copies will share their mesh data, materials, etc.
Some asset types such as collections can be created as an instanced collection.This is done by enabling the Instance option after dragging collection assets into the 3D Viewport.By enabling this option an empty object is added that uses an instance of the collection.If this option is disabled then the full collection hierarchy will be added to the scene.
Save the file into a directory that you want to use as your asset library. This directory then has to be registered as an asset library in the Preferences: Preferences > File Paths > Asset Libraries.
The Asset Browser has an Asset Details sidebar in which the metadata of assets can be edited if the asset is stored in the current file. Such assets are displayed with a special icon:
Hm. The first thing that comes to mind is that Polyhaven HDRIs come in different resolutions. So you might have a 1k, a 4k, and an 8k asset that have the same thumbnails. You probably checked for that; I just thought I mention it because people might not think of it.
while I, too, wait for this feature to become available in the asset browser, I just found out that you can just append the actions from a blend file, then they become available in your new scene and work right away. That means you have to store your animation as a named action in the action editor, then you can just append them. Takes a few seconds longer, but maybe that still helps you as it helped me. So I hope this becomes available in the asset browser soon, that is such a killer feature that we need it yesterday
Now that the asset library came out I thought to give it a shot and put all my assets into that library, which took some days.Now that I am done and can pull all my asets from the library into my blendfiles, which is great, here comes the problem.I can not open any of the blendfiles that contain any assets anymore, none of them.
Every single blend file that Ive put into my asset library folder is now broken and cant be opened. This just killed 10 years if work within 2-3 days, which is really not great! I mean, I can still access the assets via the asset browser, but the blend files seem to be corrupted or whatever happened. I am really afraid of losing all my work!
Then I moved my blend files into that folder, opened them one by one and set up the assets via "Object/Asset/Mark as Asset" and sorted them into catalogs before I moved on to the next file.After some files I decided to setup my startup file to always show the asset-browser when launching blender, which I think leads to the problem, will come to that later.
After I was done I opened a new blend file and started placing some assets, realizing that some of them are too big in scale.Then I wanted to open that file via right clicking the asset in the browser: "Open Blend File". Which did not work. Than I navigated to the folder where the file is and tried to open it via double click, doesn't work either, I also tried an older blender version, nothing.
Hello, I have been using the asset browser and want to edit collections imported into a project using the asset browser. I have trying to use the different modes of importing collections but none seem to be working.
I also tried making them local or unlinking them yet nothing seems to work.
All of our assets can be used for commercial purposes, and even shared around. We publish them under the CC0 license, which is basically copyright-free. Feel free to do anything you like with them!
Note: Assets downloaded before Dec 2022 may appear to re-download, since before this we did not store a global asset hash to detect changes easily. Any existing files (e.g. textures) will be skipped so the bandwidth used will be minimal, only blend files, thumbnails and metadata will be re-downloaded.
With these new revalidation and update checking features, it's important to note that you should not modify asset files directly. If you want to edit asset files, we recommend copying your new version to another asset library to avoid your changes being overwritten when the add-on detects the file contents are not the same as the version on our server. This only refers to editing the asset files themselves within the library folder, you are still able to edit objects/etc. after dragging them into your scene without worry.
i would like to have an object saved as an asset and use that asset via the asset browser in another file. as i want all the instances of the asset to be updated if i edit the original, i use the link option to add the asset. however, now i cannot move the object around. moving it in the source file (where the asset is defined) is useless as this would cause all the instances to be moved the same way.
I created some assets and try to organize them in a catalog, but for some reason the + sign next to all is greyed out, after a screenshot, i also got an error message " Disabled: Asset catalogs cannot be edited in this asset library". How can i fix this? It worked in an older version
What does it mean for an action to be an asset? I was supposing that I could drag an action from the asset browser onto an armature, in the same way that materials can be dragged from the asset browser to an object. Then, if the armature happens to have bones of the same name as the action was designed for, everything would work.
Okay, one step back. Before using an asset library, you have to create it. A Blender data-block can become part of an asset library by using the Mark Asset operator, which is available in multiple places:
Note that the Asset Browser in the video shows the Current File asset library. This library is special, as it is the only asset library in which assets can be edited. So, to edit the metadata of an asset, or in fact the asset itself, you have to open the .blend file it is stored in. As usual, the file should be saved in order to make the changes available to other Blenders.
The current implementation is focused on a specific use-case: Local user asset libraries. That is, asset libraries for Blender data-blocks that an artist stores on the hard drive, accessible via the Asset Browser. So for example, easy reuse of objects, base-meshes for sculpting, materials, poses, and more.
Blender sees assets as metadata enhanced data-blocks. Most data-blocks in Blender (objects, lights, materials) can already be extended with asset metadata and become assets. The creation of asset metadata happens in the current file.
Typically, in a professional environment there is some kind of server side software, which does some basic asset management tasks. This could be an asset tracer like Attract or Kitsu include; it can also be an online asset service like the Blender Cloud asset library, or BlenderKit. It is connected to some kind of asset database.
Blender should provide some kind of reference add-on that does this and can be used as a base by other studios and services. This may also just be Blender Studio add-ons for browsing Blender Cloud assets and for pipeline management.
Hello Julian, thanks for the writeup, really excited to see this project coming to fruition. You mentioned assets are datablocks with metadata : what about assets consisting of several interlinked datablocks, such as characters consisting of an armature and multiple objects, several materials, etc. ? can they be marked as asset as a whole ? Can the user mark an collection as an asset ? can they choose whether to append or link it from the asset browser interface ?
Besides collections (which can be assets), assets should respect the regular data-block dependencies. So if you drag in an object, its materials come along. And with the materials there may be textures coming along as well. And so on.
But from a user point of view the look of it is nearly identical to what could be imagined in this regard.
In other words the asset browser is exactly how the internal data management should look like too.
Please consider supporting this proposal I came up with: Asset Variation System.
Doing asset management is all about keeping things in an organized and tindy workflow. Nowadays blender has pretty strong parametric modeling and shading ability. When making assets, why bother making a bunch of duplicates of meshes or shaders variations that shares a lot of common properties among themselves?
