Auto Prop Setup

🧰 Auto Prop Setup

Auto Prop Setup is a powerful Unity editor tool that automates

the entire setup workflow for static 3D assets - from raw FBX

file to ready-to-use Prefab. What normally takes 30-75 minutes

of manual work for 10–15 props is reduced to seconds.

Auto Prop Setup covers the complete workflow in one tool:

extract materials, configure texture import settings, assign

textures to material slots, set up LOD Groups, add Mesh Colliders,

and create Prefabs - with consistent, predictable results across

all render pipelines.

✨ Key Features

📁 Project & Folder Structure

- Automated creation of structured asset folders

- Optional custom subfolder for organizing project variants

- Optional scene creation with Volume setup for URP and HDRP

- Pre-configured folder templates (Meshes, Textures, Materials,

Prefabs, Scripts, Editor, and more)

🎨 Texture Handling

- Automatic texture import settings (sRGB/Linear, Normal Map type)

- Auto-detection by naming suffixes for Albedo, Normal, AO,

Metallic, Roughness, Mask, Emission, Height, Opacity and Detail

- Customizable suffix presets per texture type

- Smart skipping of already-configured textures

- Optional High Quality preset (Trilinear filtering, Aniso 16,

Mitchell resize, CompressedHQ)

- Support for 12 texture formats: PNG, TGA, JPG, JPEG, BMP, PSD,

TIFF, TIF, EXR, HDR, GIF, WEBP

🧩 Material Workflow

- Extract embedded materials from FBX files into clean,

organized folders

- Automatic texture-to-material assignment via naming logic

- Pipeline-aware property handling (Built-in, URP, HDRP)

- Recursive folder search for textures and materials

- Informative feedback when textures cannot be assigned

📦 Mesh & Prefab Workflow

- Automatic LOD Group setup (up to 8 levels) based on child

naming (LOD0–LOD7, case-insensitive)

- Optional Mesh Collider creation with optional Convex setting

- Smart skipping of GameObjects that already have an LOD Group

or Mesh Collider

📋 LOD Naming Convention

For automatic LOD Group setup, child objects must contain

"LOD0", "LOD1", "LOD2" or "LOD3" (up to LOD7) in their name (case-insensitive).

Examples: Tree_LOD0, bench_lod1_mesh, Rock_LOD7_far

🎯 Intended For

- Solo developers and small teams

- 3D artists working with static environments and props

- Asset Store publishers preparing their packs

- Anyone importing FBX-based 3D content into Unity

Not intended for:

- Runtime logic or gameplay systems

- Animated characters or skeletal meshes

- Dynamic asset modification at runtime

🔧 Render Pipeline Support

✅ Built-in Render Pipeline

✅ Universal Render Pipeline (URP)

✅ High Definition Render Pipeline (HDRP)

Pipeline-specific differences are respected automatically

without enforcing irreversible settings.

ℹ️ Note

Auto Prop Setup is an editor-only utility. It does not affect

runtime logic or project settings, and always leaves full

control over structure, assignments and final asset settings

to the user.
