Create your own world with Quixel’s Megascans, Bridge & Mixer
Quixel is the creator of Megascans – a unique 3D asset library, and Bridge & Mixer – two companion applications for 3D art creation. With these products, we are able to create amazing 3D art for video games, movies, architecture visualization, and more.
Let’s discover these three amazing products with iRender today.
1. Megascans
Megascans is a massive scan library. It has thousands of 3D assets, tileable surfaces, vegetation, imperfections, atlases, decals and much more, from urban to natural. Hundreds of new assets are scanned weekly.
Thanks to its high quality and efficiency, Megascans helps us create beautiful scenery faster. Not only the assets are photoreal but also every element of them is scanned and made fully modular, enabling you to create the most detailed worlds imaginable.
All assets are consistently scanned, scaled and PBR calibrated, and every single 3D mesh comes with meticulously optimized topology, UVs and LODs. They help you to focus on being creative and less time doing boring work.
2. Bridge
Bridge is the gateway to Megascans and MetaHumans, we can browse their libraries in a quick and artist-friendly way.

Moreover, we are able to seamlessly export to our favorite 3D application or game engine with one click. Assets are sent straight to Unreal Engine, 3ds Max, Houdini, Unity, Blender, Cinema 4D, Clarisse, Maya, and more, with automatic mesh and shader setups for all major renderers. More importantly, you just jump right into your project without bothering to correctly set up shaders or spending time hooking up map slots.
Bridge also works in any format you want. It offers a variety of formats: from the standard FBX and OBJ to up-and-coming standards such as USD and MDL.
3. Mixer
Mixer helps you to texture your custom assets with multi-channel 3D painting, real-time 3D curvature, displacement sculpting, ID masking, procedural noises, seamless texture projection, Smart Materials, etc. It is versatile enough to allow you to work in the style of your choice, and create any material imaginable.
Combined with Megascans content, they allow limitless creative possibilities and help artists achieve stunning results.
To sum up
Quixel’s products, Megascans, Bridge & Mixer, give artists access to a vast and ever-expanding library of 3D assets, and easy-to-use tools to greatly simplify the creative process. They are trusted and widely used in films, games, or visualization, i.e. Black Panther, Justice League, Cyberpunk 2077, The Lion King, Jumanji, The Jungle Book and many more.
In addition, through Bridge, Megascans content is easily exported to many industry-standard software and renderers like Unreal Engine, 3ds Max, Houdini, Unity, Blender, Cinema 4D, Clarisse, Maya, Octane, Arnold, Redshift, Vray, Corona, Fstorm, Marmoset Toolbag.
iRender - Powerful Cloud Rendering Service
However, whether you use any software and renderer, you still need a strong workstation to work efficiently and quickly. iRender offers a more accessible solution for all artists to speed up their render and optimize the workflow, that is GPU Cloud Rendering. We support both Single-GPU and Multi-GPU Rendering with Powerful Render Nodes: 1/2/4/6/8x RTX 3090 for all your needs.
High-end configuration: NVIDIA RTX 3090 and AMD Ryzen Threadripper Pro 3955WX @ 3.90GHz, and with reasonable price. However, we are more than that. With a variety of useful features (Fixed Rental, Clone, NV Link, APIs, Process monitoring, etc) and dedicated support from our team, we want to bring to you not only the best quality products but also the most comfortable render time and experience.
Thank you & Happy Rendering!
