Material Manager 5

Current version: 5.2.0.

The Material Manager is an all-in-one interface for quickly interacting with scene materials.  Quickly sort, search, filter, create, rename, delete, duplicate, and assign materials and texture files with the click of a button!  This tool comes equipped with material presets that won't clutter up scene files and can be loaded in when they are needed, as well as an on-board color ID map baker.

Last Update: 21 July 2019. MM5 is designed to work on all versions of Maya and Maya LT from 2013 and onward.  Compatibility designed to work on future versions of Maya that are not yet out.  Not guaranteed to work perfectly on versions of Maya newer than version 2019, although it has been confirmed to work well in versions as new as Maya 2024.
