SmartBuilder

⚠️ SmartBuilder is no longer being updated.

From Unity 6 and forward It has been replaced by Asset Hunter Suite — a complete rewrite built on Unity's modern UI Toolkit, with full support for Unity 6 and future versions. SmartBuilder's context-aware asset suggestions carry over, bundled together with Asset Hunter and Asset Finder in one package.

SmartBuilder will speed up your level production

Smartbuilder gives you a intutitive window with a list of context sensitive assets - i.e. if you are building a forest, it gives you a grid of vegetation prefabs and if you are building a Village it gives you a grid of houses. It will reflect your selection, and always show you the most relevant prefabs and allow you to drag directly into the scene. It does this by analyzing the filename, directory, tags and labels of your assets.

✨100% Plug n' Play - No setup required
