Blendkit bug: I can't apply the materials

[archvizaurora]

Bug Description

When I...

Environment Information - Bug happens on:

• Blendkit version: v3.21.0.260628
• Blender version: v4.4.3 (from: )
• Python version: 3.11.11
• Operating system & architecture: Windows 10 (AMD64)
• Proxy setting: SYSTEM
• Using VPN, proxy, or firewall?

Additional Information

I'm also having this problem. I'm using Blender version 4.4.3, and when I drag the texture onto my block, it downloads the material, but it doesn't apply it and doesn't even appear in my project's material list. The only thing it changes on the block I tried to apply it to is the UVs. But when I try to do the same thing in version 4.5, it works fine. I’m using the latest version of BlenderKit.

Hi can you provide ID or print screen of that material ?

So we can verify.

The issue usually is that users overlook small disclaimer warning about general version compatibility.

Your description sounds like that.

Other thing, but less common is that >>

(for example )
If you download material in blender 5.0 and have auto unpacking of textures enabled.
That .blend file containing the material will be resaved on your PC using blender 5.0.
And this can prevent importing such material in older blender versions later.

When you download any asset from Blendkit it is saved locally and reused in future to speed up the process and also to support local project libraries.

if you are on PC, you can test that yourselves. By manually removing that downloaded file and by downloading the same material in older version of blender.

By default blendkit data are stored here (replace by you local PC user name)
