Hi everyone,

I've added the support for our beloved render engine to Quixel Bridge.

Details are on my Gumroad page, let me know if you have questions but it should be pretty straightforward, it just works.

Quixel Bridge Importer for Corona Renderer (C4D) on Gumroad

Features in v0.3
- complete Megascans maps support including even metalness, translucency, transmission, fuzziness
- combo channel map support ( AO+Albedo, Normal + Bump )
- decals support, loaded as Corona Decal
- exact displacement scale, acquired from the asset's metadata
- new settings added for greater control over the material creation process and to improve displacement management

Hi micz, the update will come within the week.

I've added few other things in addition to decals, I'll keep you posted here or through Gumroad if you bought the plugin.

I bought, it works great and I want more ;)
What will happen when Quixel releases an update? Will Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V in the code be enough?

Thanks !

In the short term don't expect any update to Bridge since the last C4D plugin update was in September 2022 ( it is more or less the same with the other plugins).

Later this year, Megascans will become part of FAB, a new 3d asset marketplace from Epic. They will launch new tools to get the most out of the new platform, but I don't know which software will be supported and how well. More info here.

Hey, nice plugin !!
Just one question, how can I force the use of the normal map instead of the bump map during export?

Hey thanks !

You can disable the Bump channel in the export settings, as well as any other texture type you don't want to import :

hmmm, doesn't work

Nah it works, I've tested it before answering ;)

But in your case I guess there is no normal map in this texture set. The plugin can load only what is in the folder and what is enabled in the export settings.

So please check the textures available in the folder with "go to files" in the context menu. If the normal map is missing, re-download the asset ensuring the normal map channel is checked in the download settings.
