Installation

PROTO Game Asset Tools requires Blender 4.2 or newer

Download links can be found here

PROTO Game Asset Tools can be installed via the Blender Extensions website, or by downloading a .zip and installing locally. The Extensions website is easy, but I recommend downloading a .zip and keeping a backup in case you need to troubleshoot your pipeline in the future.

Installing via Blender Extensions

Installing from the Blender Extensions Page is easy. Just drag-and-drop from the webpage into Blender’s window.

Installing via Download

After downloading the add-on do not un-zip the .zip file. You will install the .zip directly.

To install the add-on, open Blender and navigate to Edit > Preferences…

Open the Add-ons tab. In the top right, click on the little arrow and select Install from Disk…

In the fileviewer, find the downloaded .zip file and select it to install.

PROTO Viewport tab

With the add-on installed, you should now see a PROTO tab on the right side of any viewport.

If you don’t see any tabs, you probably need to expand them. Drag open the small arrow tab on the top right of the viewport, or press the N key to toggle it open and closed.
