  I was on the fence about whether I needed this, but after getting it, I think it fulfills what I was looking for. A quick way of setting up textures while developing the look in my scene. Some textures I may replace with specific ones once my scene is set up, but the library is broad enough I can develop a whole scene with these and then go into more specifics on objects closer to the camera. And I can add my own textures from other resources into the library. So that's great. The displacement stuff and UV's were a little confusing to me after being familiar with their setup in vanilla blender. But a quick run-through of the docs and youtube videos helped and got me using it the right way. I would say, I think the youtube videos are a bit easier to understand, but maybe that's my personal preference.
  Thanks to the developer and I'm looking forward to more updates. If it's possible to bring something in that allows blending the texture for organic materials like dirt on large planes to get rid of tile repetition (to some degree, doesn't have to be perfect) (mosaic method might work?), that would be a big bonus. Just a thought.
  *With regard to the download time, as I'm seeing comments in some reviews, I did download the full library. I'm in NA, and have very fast internet and it did take quite a while. It was a number of hours. However my internet was stable and it got it on the first try. I was getting a stable 30-40mbps dl. Honestly I've had similar internet speeds downloading from Steam. I'm not sure where this is hosted, but I can't say I'm expecting much better coming from a small dev. I don't know..
  You can also download the basic packs and then download the larger packs after, which is recommended in the documentation. A faster download would be nice but I only need to do it once and then the addon updates the library later, so I don't think it will be an issue once the bulk is downloaded. Hopefully people who were having a hard time can get it working.
  Overall I'm happy with the product so far, and seems priced about right for the function and pre-packed cc0 textures.

  Please distribute it in Zip format.

  Does anyone exist who was able to download the library? Normally it takes less than 30 minutes to download 80GB, but due to the poor performance of the Nexus server, the download was only 3% complete after 20 hours.

  I don't understand why you don't distribute the zip format on BlenderMarket until the server is stable.

  Hi, we're sorry for what happened, as we reported on the product description page, during BlackFriday we had a huge influx of users on our server. We cannot otherwise distribute the libraries as they are 184 GB of files and must be installed correctly by Extreme PBR installer. We have written a notice, both on BlenderMarket and on our ExtremeAddons website, that in these days of Blackfriday there could be Download problems, We also have a chat in which we assist our users, we would have explained well what happens. In any case, I repeat, I'm sorry for what happened. I invite you to try again and if you use a VPN / Proxy, disable it, as these services can slow down the download a lot.

  Loving the Nexus update. Super useful texturing addon. The layered texture paint and easy on/off displacement option is such a time saver. The only thing I would love to see is some more glass presets (e.g. artistic glass with lot's of chromatic abberation) and some more high end patterns for interiors.

  It's great that the software license is for lifetime, but where exactly does it say that I can run this only on one single computer ?
  And if I need more licenses how do I do that ?

  Hei Thomas, ty for your Support,
  You can install the addon on as many computers as you want, you can move the license. If you had asked me, I would have told you right away 😅
  We also have a chat system on our site if you need

  A really brilliant add-on! I just love using it and it is super-easy to do so. I really enjoyed Extreme PBR Pro which I bought back in 2019 but this Nexus version takes it to the next level. Well done Andrew_D!

  It has to be said, the current process of downloading assets within blender from a server that can not push more than half a megabyte seems counterintuitive. I hope piracy wasn't the cause of this because it only hurts the people that support the product.

  All and all, I want to love this product. It has so many useful features that come along with the collection of PBR materials. I have found myself going to this add-on frequently for adding detailed textures to my work. The water has really stood out. It is a shame there is such a barrier to use and download this.

  For now, I am slowly downloading everything for the third time since the "EXTREME PBR Nexus update (4.0117)

  The pop up telling me that it has to do with MY connection made me laugh so I added another star back.

  Hi, thanks for your support. You are right, we are improving the server performance as we have been operating with it for a few days. Keep in mind that that download process is also an installation process, so the times add up. In any case, everything can be improved and we are here on purpose.

  8 hours to download 84gb (from 183). The servers are a joke, my connection usually takes 2 hours top to download that.

  That process is not just a download process but an installation process as well. So yes, we are also trying to improve server performance. If you are still having problems please report it to us.
