Recently, Greyscalegorilla, the makers of premium assets and tools for 3D artists, announced the availability of their photoreal 3D asset library, Greyscalegorilla Plus, for Houdini. They have a collection of free assets and texture maps that you can access using their Houdini plug-in.

You can then use these assets in your entries, label your entry as Made with Greyscalegorilla+ and you will be eligible to win a one year subscription to Greyscalegorilla+ in a side contest.

Hi Robert,

Just a quick question re the above.. Are the Greyscale Materials available to use from the Material Linker node, like the AMD Material library is?

Thanks in advance!
Cam.

Not at this time. Their plug-in puts things in /mat and then you can copy and paste to move it over. I am going to show then the Material Linker video to see if they are interested in going that route in the future.

hi Robert,

I've managed to install plugin, added new GSG shelf and tried to import an unzipped asset that I've downloaded but get message stating "No GreyScaleGorilla matrials found." any ideas?

You need to download each free zip into seperate folder and select the folder from shelf import.

Has the GreyScaleGorilla+ membership been awarded already? I haven't seen any information about the side contest since Mardini ended.
