When to use TextureFast vs Adobe Photoshop

Choose the right tool for the job. Here is when each one fits best.

  • Use Adobe Photoshop

    Use Photoshop when you need pixel-level edits, custom brush work, or integration with existing PSD-based pipelines.

    Use TextureFast

    Use TextureFast when you'd rather skip the grind: get a full PBR suite (albedo, normal, roughness) in seconds from a text description.

  • Use Adobe Photoshop

    Stay with Photoshop for compositing, matte painting, or when every pixel must be hand-tuned.

    Use TextureFast

    Choose TextureFast for seamless tiles, environment fills, or rapid iteration. Describe the look instead of cloning out seams for 45 minutes.

What you get with TextureFast

Photoshop: 45 minutes of seam fixing and manual map creation. TextureFast: full PBR suite in seconds.

Text to Texture

TextureFast generates textures from a text description. Photoshop is a multi-tool; you clone seams, use Offset filters, and build roughness maps by hand. TextureFast is a power tool for textures: one description, full PBR in seconds.

Style Presets

TextureFast style presets keep a consistent look across many assets. In Photoshop you match style through manual workflow and shared layer setups.

Switching from Adobe Photoshop to TextureFast

Move your workflow to TextureFast in a few steps while keeping your existing assets.

  1. Export your UV-unwrapped mesh from your DCC (OBJ or FBX).
  2. Sign up at TextureFast and upload the model.
  3. Describe the material in text (e.g. "tiled concrete", "weathered metal") instead of manually creating it in Photoshop.
  4. Download 4K PNG maps (albedo, roughness, normal) and import into your engine or continue editing in Photoshop if you need tweaks.
  5. Use TextureFast for base passes; use Photoshop for final touch-ups or when you need specific hand-painted details.
