Shop for 3D models in Roblox

Depends on the model type, let’s say for example I used your service for a low poly tree.

You could sculpt a watermark into said tree or place multiple watermarks across the tree. If it’s a single OBJ than the watermark would have to be manually removed within blender.

I think you mean that this could be used as an alternative instead of images but I think this would make the process of uploading a model to the game much more complex and time expensive. People who know Blender could also just remove the watermark. The best alternative for images would be links to youtube videos that show the models. I would rather stick with images :smiley:

Honestly, what’s the point of this?

Either

A. They will simply use quality free models off of the shop
or
B. Your models will get leaked and people will just get them for free

If they are leaked someone has already bought them and there aren’t that much quality free models (without viruses) on the shop.

Isn’t it disrespectful to all of the high-quality modelers to say that? I see tons and tons of quality free models on the toolbox made by people who simply want to help others with no monetary gain.

Depends on how simplified your watermark, OBJ is.

If you were to make a watermark design like this

wouldn’t be as simple to cover up.

You’re competing with other platforms that distribute .objs therefore making the requirements difficult on the consumers end would discourage us from using your service.

I think you’ve got a good concept yet it’s flawed since you haven’t covered every detail. You’re basing it on fear which isn’t something the costumers care about, we’re selfish and focused on what we want so we’ll take our business elsewhere.

I’m not trying to discourage you, I want you to succeed as I feel as if this service could not only be beneficial to me yet others as well. Best of luck to your service regardless of if you take my advice or not.

I just browsed through the toolbox and I couldn’t find many quality low poly meshes. Although I really appreciate when people put quality work on the toolbox.

If I paid for something, I wouldn’t want a watermark. I mean, come on! You’re paying for it!

Good point, but I see plenty of high-quality models in the toolbox, if you know where to look. It’s not the best solution, but it’s there if anyone needs it.

Thanks! Remember that it’s only a concept wich can be changed. Maybe I’ll put watermarks on the models or not, we’ll see. :smiley:

I would advise not to. I don’t think that people who pay for something would like a watermark on it.

I was referring to before the asset was purchased, after the asset was purchased the watermark would’ve been removed.

If you want to search for it. In a shop (with a searchbar) you can easily find what you are looking for.

In the toolbox, you can also easily find what you are looking for.

Maybe, but they are not all the same style.

You’ll have better results searching in #learning-resources:community-tutorials-resources compared to the toolbox within studio.

For example I found this lowpoly tree pack earlier this week while randomly browsing.

Yes, models there tend to be higher-quality, but if you don’t find what you’re looking for there, the toolbox has millions of models. Most of the time, if you need something specific and can’t just make it yourself, you’ll use the toolbox to see how to make it / put the model in your game.

I think that would be a really great feature to see added to Roblox. I believe if executed correctly, it could be massive.

How would you stop another person from reselling the model for a higher price that they bought for a lower one?

Had this idea before. I dont think its even possible to allow one person to take the model without physical contact between client and seller. Also, it runs the risk of other players getting the model at the same time without paying.
