This can be inconvenient, especially for professionals who already have extensive asset libraries\u2014often thousands of assets\u2014organized in their own file structures. Since these assets are already categorized effectively, why not use the existing system?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another limitation we\u2019ve encountered is how Blender handles .blend files in an asset library. When a file contains multiple assets, such as a decorative set with 10\u201320 individual items, we typically want to import everything at once. However, Blender\u2019s Asset Browser doesn\u2019t support parented objects (as of writing), meaning we must mark the entire collection as an asset. When importing, this requires an extra step: using <em>Make Instances Real<\/em> before any edits can be made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the Asset Browser is a great tool, it doesn\u2019t fully align with our workflow. We prefer to save assets as separate files and import them directly, as is standard in Archviz and many other industries. If the Asset Browser works for you, that\u2019s great\u2014it\u2019s certainly a fast and efficient tool\u2014but for our needs, the traditional method remains the best fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"htoc-g\">Google &amp; Facebook Login<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At the time of making this, Google and Facebook login is not supported.
