Industrial scenes require massive visual repetition. To prevent your GPU VRAM from overloading when creating sprawling horizons filled with pipes and cooling towers, convert your main structures into (or Unpacked Instances in Blender, and Hierarchical Instanced Static Meshes in Unreal Engine). This allows you to duplicate a 90-meter complex hundreds of times while only computing the geometry memory footprint of a single asset. Creative Use Cases for the Refineries Kit
While the traditional approach involves downloading and extracting a .zip file, KitBash3D now encourages using their proprietary Cargo asset browser, which allows for "1-Click Import" into software like Blender, Unreal Engine, and Unity. kitbash3d refinerieszip top
