The Material Nodes addon provides a suite of over 40 custom node groups designed for building materials in the Shader Editor. These building blocks function as shaders and masks, allowing for procedural and semi-procedural workflows without relying heavily on image textures. The tool integrates into the N-panel of the Shader Editor and supports both EEVEE and Cycles render engines.

The package includes a library of 165 pre-made materials, along with an optimized lighting scene. The node collection features utilities such as albedo variation, ambient occlusion mixing, procedural patterns like Checkers Plus, customizable car paint and fabric shaders, and reference values for plausible dielectric and metal albedos.
