C.Mats earns its spot in the Superhive catalog by packaging 90 procedural materials with two addons, including Dirtify 2.0, and supporting Blender releases from 3.0 through 4.3.
C.Mats is a procedural material bundle for Blender, created by chery (also credited as Manu Chery). It brings together 90 procedural materials and two addons, and is distributed under a GPL license. The bundle has been published for over a year and lists more than 20 sales on Superhive.
The material set spans fabric, wood, metal, marble, and carpaint surfaces, along with 15 real and fictional planets. Two addons round out the package, including Dirtify 2.0, which targets realistic weathering. Documentation is provided, and a demo video is available.
Compatibility covers a broad span of Blender versions, from 3.0 through 4.3, including the entire 3.x series and 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3. C.Mats brings procedural materials, planet materials, and the Dirtify 2.0 weathering addon together in one package. For current licensing and download details, visit the developer's page.
C.Mats is best for blender artists who want a single bundle of procedural surface and planet materials with a weathering addon.
C.Mats is completely free to download and use.
C.Mats supports a wide range of Blender releases, listed as 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3. That spans the full 3.x line through the current 4.x versions, so the bundle should load in most recent Blender installations. If you are on a version outside that list, check the developer's page for the latest compatibility notes before installing.
C.Mats is listed as free here in the catalog. Licensing and pricing can change over time, and the developer distributes the bundle under a GPL license, so the terms for use, modification, and redistribution follow that license. For the most current pricing and download options, check the developer's page rather than relying on this entry, since the creator sets and updates those details directly.
C.Mats is distributed under the GPL license. That covers how the bundle's materials and addons can be used, modified, and shared. If you plan to build on the assets or redistribute them, review the GPL terms so your usage stays within them. For any project-specific questions about licensing, the developer's page is the best place to confirm the current terms directly with the creator.
