Saving and Loading Material Plus
The benefits of Material Plus is that it can apply multiple materials with a number of parameter adjustments with a single deployment.
Note:
Material Plus deployment works by matching to the original mesh name, mesh vertex count, and the material name. If a match is found then the material is applied, if not then it is simply skipped. Therefore, every content will need a very specific Material Plus file to match in order to pass detection.
Saving Material Plus
Saving modified material settings as a new material plus template may help you to quickly keep the settings in one file instead of saving the materials into individual files one after another.
