TextureLab
TextureLab is a free, open-source tool for creating tileable, physically based textures. Its node-based workflow previews each stage, and shapes, noises, and filters are seamless by default. Procedural textures can be designed once and used at any resolution. Almost all nodes are built for GPU operation. Materials default to a metallic Physically Based Rendering workflow, and textures can be exported directly to Unity materials. TextureLab runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux. The download page lists version 0.4.0 beta, released August 23, 2026, alongside source builds and itch.io downloads. The project remains under heavy development, with contributions invited through GitHub and communities on Discord and itch.io. The listed plan is free at free, and there is no separate free trial.
