Professional 3D Texture Painting.
In Browser & On Your Desktop.
HypTex is an enterprise-grade 3D texture painter and material authoring suite engineered by WebSpider Studios. Paint multi-channel PBR textures, bake high-poly mesh maps on your GPU, and render photorealistic portfolio shots with interactive path tracing.
Experience HypTex in Your Browser
Direct WebGPU / WebAssembly execution with non-destructive layers, smart materials, and GPU-accelerated baking.
Engineered for High Performance & Precision
Everything you need for cutting-edge game assets, VFX models, and 3D product textures.
Layer-Stack & Mask Engine
Multi-channel texture painting across Base Color, Metallic, Roughness, Normal, Height, Emissive, and Ambient Occlusion with procedural masks, anchor points, and blend modes.
GPU & Multi-Core Bakers
High-speed mesh map transfer from high-poly sculpts: Tangent & World Space Normals, Curvature, Ambient Occlusion, Bent Normals, Thickness, Position, and ID maps.
Real-Time PBR Viewport
Photorealistic Metal/Roughness & Specular/Glossiness shading models powered by split-sum Image-Based Lighting (IBL), GGX/Smith specular, and custom environment HDRIs.
Path-Traced Render Mode
Capture portfolio-grade hero shots without leaving the painter. Built-in interactive GPU path tracing with physical lights and true emissive bounces.
100% Safe Rust Core
Built with #![forbid(unsafe_code)] across the entire workspace. Immune to buffer overflows, dangling pointers, memory corruption, and common graphics software crashes.
Local-First & Zero Telemetry
Your creative files, textures, and assets never leave your computer. Local loopback IPC (127.0.0.1) is fortified with 256-bit CSPRNG authentication tokens.
