Why we like it

Set Project stands out in the Superhive library for bringing Maya-style project management into Blender, with a workflow that ends on a single Save Project button.

What is Set Project?

Set Project by Jishnu Jithu is a Blender addon focused on project setup and organization, taking cues from the project management features found in Maya. It gives you an efficient way to define a project name and location, then structure that project by adding or deleting folders as needed.

Saving is handled through customizable options, including file names, compression settings, and path remapping. Projects can stay current using automatic or manual folder refresh, and the addon recognizes folders created outside of Blender through Windows Explorer. When your setup is ready, a single Save Project button finalizes it.

The addon includes presets, letting you work from default settings or create custom presets for your own projects. Its interface is built around intuitive design and simple controls, keeping project management approachable. A demo video is available for those who want to see it before adding it to their setup.

Who is Set Project best for?

Set Project is best for blender artists who want to set up and organize projects, folders, and saving options from within Blender.

Frequently asked questions

Which Blender versions does Set Project support?

Set Project lists support for a wide range of Blender versions, spanning 3.0 through 4.4 — including 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, and 4.4. That range covers both older and current releases, so most Blender setups should be able to run the addon. If you are on a version outside this list, check the developer's page to confirm current compatibility before installing.

Can Set Project detect folders made outside of Blender?

Set Project recognizes folders created outside of Blender using Windows Explorer, so directories you make in your file system can be brought into the addon's project structure. It also offers folder updates through automatic or manual refresh, which helps keep a project current as its contents change. Together these make it possible to manage a project's folder layout both from within Blender and from your operating system.

Is Set Project free?

Set Project is listed as free in this catalog. The addon is distributed under the GPL license. Because licensing and any pricing can change over time, and the developer maintains different editions, check the developer's page for the current terms before you download. There you can also confirm which edition includes the features you need and review the documentation that accompanies the addon.
