TextureFast vs Shader Graph & Blueprints: at a glance

Feature	TextureFast	Shader Graph & Blueprints
Speed	In seconds	Hours to days (node setup, math tuning, GPU debugging)
Ease of Use	Upload UV model, describe in text, get textures. No painting.	Math-heavy; noise layers, UV distortion, runtime calculations
Export Formats	4K PNG (albedo, roughness, normal, etc.), GLB	Engine-specific (Unity Shader Graph, Unreal Material nodes)
Price	Token-based subscription; pay for what you use	Included with Unity/Unreal; time and performance cost
AI Capabilities	Text-to-texture, style presets, consistent PBR output	None; fully procedural nodes

When to use TextureFast vs Shader Graph & Blueprints

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

Use Shader Graph & Blueprints
Use Shader Graph or Blueprints when you need runtime variation (e.g. procedural terrain, animated materials) or engine-specific effects.
Use TextureFast
Use TextureFast when you want the visual complexity of a 100-node shader in a single, lightweight texture set: no runtime math, no GPU overhead.
Use Shader Graph & Blueprints
Stay with procedural materials for dynamic environments or when the look must change at runtime.
Use TextureFast
Choose TextureFast for static assets, hero props, or when you want a bespoke look without the performance hit of complex runtime calculations.

What you get with TextureFast

TextureFast delivers the visual complexity of a 100-node shader as a lightweight texture set. Bespoke look, no runtime performance hit.

Text to Texture

TextureFast gives you bespoke textures from a text description. Shader Graph and Blueprints layer noise and math nodes to build looks procedurally; powerful, but heavy on the GPU and hard to tune without a math background.

Style Presets

TextureFast style presets deliver consistent, high-fidelity looks as baked textures. Procedural setups require copying node graphs and tweaking parameters across many materials.

Switching from Shader Graph & Blueprints to TextureFast

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

Identify assets that use heavy procedural node setups (moss, rust, dirt, layered noise).
Export the UV-unwrapped mesh and upload to TextureFast.
Describe the look in text (e.g. "mossy stone", "rusted industrial metal").
Download 4K PNG maps (albedo, roughness, normal) and replace your procedural material with a simple texture sample.
Keep procedural setups for dynamic or animated materials; use TextureFast for static, complex looks that don't need runtime variation.
