Hi,  
Personally I use [Substance 3D Assets](https://substance3d.adobe.com/assets/allassets?assetType=substanceMaterial&assetType=substanceAtlas&assetType=substanceDecal&free=true) for textures and materials but if it is to be used in the library of Shapr3d, it will be very complicated.  
Files are encoded in the format [KTX File Format](https://registry.khronos.org/KTX/specs/1.0/ktxspec.v1.html) (and I was unable to create a .ktx from .jpg, .png or other…)  
Good luck !

Thanks I really appreciate the info. Yeah from what research I did after asking the question I’m just I might have to do all my materials in blender. If I want anything more textured, I was trying to find like a stucco wall and ended up using a rough leather pattern, which actually looks good if you size up the roughness correctly.
