@DeriveSynergy Sorry, missed this! No built-in versioning yet. If each version is its own file (sword_v1.1, sword_v2.6), add both and assign each to its project. Editing one file in place won't keep history though. How do you manage versions now? Keen to hear for the roadmap.

AssetHoard v0.2.1 is out 🎮

Unreal support has landed. Point it at a project and your .uasset and .umap files preview right in your library. Meshes orbit, sprites animate, sound cues play. No editor required.

A slightly technical write-up on how AssetHoard peeks inside and renders assets in zips, rars, and tar/gz archives without extracting them first.

Play audio straight out of a zip.

AssetHoard previews inside archives (zip, rar, tar, gz) as if the files were already uncompressed on your drive. No extracting, no temp folders. Click the track, hit play.

Got 4 candle pngs, or a 3D model in fbx and gltf?
Variant groups, new in AssetHoard 0.1.17, fold them into a single entry. The files on disk never move.

That asset pack you bought. Hundreds of files, folders inside folders, and the one icon you need is buried somewhere in there.

You could go digging. Or hit show all and see every item laid out in one scroll.

3D in AssetHoard.

Rotate, pan, and play animations on your models without opening a single other app. No more launching Blender just to remember what that .fbx actually was.

[Asset Hoard @assethoardapp]

A 3D model is never just one file. It points to textures, maps, a .bin, a web of dependencies.

AssetHoard now shows every one of them on the asset, so the whole render is visible at a glance. It even flags which are still sitting on disk, unimported.

Asset Hoard now auto-plays audio as you navigate. Arrow through a folder of SFX and each clip plays the second it's selected. No clicking play, no opening files one by one. https://t.co/KWAS3xdatj #gamedev #indiedev #gameaudio #sounddesign #gameassets

[Asset Hoard @assethoardapp]

Did you know Asset Hoard previews Aseprite animations? Drop a .aseprite file into your library and the preview plays the animation, no export needed.

One library. Everything visible. - https://t.co/KWAS3xdatj

Asset Hoard v0.1.14 is out.

Quick fix for a few v0.1.13 bugs:
- Audio not loading
- Import notes not saving
- Godot .tres skipped in watched folders

Also: long sprite sheets, NoiseTexture2D previews.

https://t.co/xSaesGUMy9

[Asset Hoard @assethoardapp]

Godot .tres support in Asset Hoard v0.1.13.

Drag a .tres file out and every referenced texture comes with it in res:// layout. Drop it into a Godot project and it just works.

✅ Materials, SpriteFrames, TileSets, +more
