3DTextures.me vs Mextures

3DTextures.me is a web library of free seamless PBR and stylized textures for digital art projects. Texture posts can include Diffuse, Normal, Metallic, Displacement, Roughness, and Ambient Occlusion maps, with downloads in PNG and SBS/SBSAR formats. The site says the textures work with Unity, Unreal, Godot, Blender, Maya, and 3DSMax. They are licensed CC0, allowing commercial use without attribution; redistribution is allowed, but users may not claim authorship. The Free textures plan costs nothing and requires one-by-one downloads. Supporters can receive a link for downloading all textures, while support of 3 or more coffees includes a 4K textures folder and other textures. A supporter-only interactive library provides previews and filters by name and date added. The site also offers Align Tools for Blender, and its FAQ directs questions to a contact form.

Mextures offers photo-editing textures, overlays, film presets, and apps for creating film-like effects. Its iOS editor supports unlimited layers that can be moved, hidden, rotated, and adjusted for opacity. The product page lists more than 200 stackable textures, including grain, dust, light leaks, and color gradients, along with 30 film presets and more than 300 Formulas. Formula Manager lets users import Formulas from others and export their own to share. Console is a free Photoshop plugin in beta; it works with Photoshop CC 2016–2023 on Windows 10 or newer and macOS 11 or newer. The maker warns that the current Console version crashes with the latest Photoshop and macOS Sonoma. Film Presets are compatible with Console, Lightroom CC 2021/2022, Final Cut Pro, and Adobe Premiere, with separate software-specific versions required for separate purchases. They are not conversion LUTs, so RAW or LOG footage needs to be normalized first. Listed options include the iOS app at 1.99 USD once and the X-Film Overlay Pack at $10 a month.
