Where can I get more and more material?

Just create as many as you need.

that mean eat myself....!

How do you store materials you created yourself?

Just save the desired nodes in orbx file (right click on a node). You can save from simple nodes up to large full scenes. you can even embed all materials and textures in a folder.

Hm, sounds like Standalone stuff ... I need the materials somewhere, where I can use them with the blender plugin as well ... so Live DB or so?

Can't you import macros or .orbx files into the plugin?

There is supposed to be a localDB sometime in the 2.0 pipeline, but not sure when.

Not currently for what I know.

I posted a request about that feature some time ago... wait and see...

I don't really understand you, guys.
It takes about 30-60 secs to make average material from scratch. Why do you try to make hundreds of materials for any case?

Not everyone is a nodeguru or has access to great textures and/or understands, how to properly create bumpmaps, normalmaps etc Karba. Access to a nice lib of materials is really a nice thing to have ... which is why I love LiveDB.
