SimplerCAD vs MapBake

Turn your ideas into 3D designs with SimplerCAD. Build models from basic shapes, adjust dimensions, and combine objects in a hands-on CAD workspace. CREATE AND EDIT Add shapes, move, rotate and scale objects, and use grid and snap controls for precise placement. Switch between different model views as you work. SAVE AND SHARE Save editable projects locally, open them again to keep working, and export models in formats including STL, OBJ and GLB. Use your device's sharing options to send files to the destination you choose. LEARN AS YOU GO Explore the built-in Help center for guides to the workspace and modeling tools. Designed for makers, hobbyists and anyone learning 3D modeling. Designed for iPhone. This version saves projects locally and does not require an account. Contains banner advertising.

Turn images into practical, game-ready PBR material starting points directly on iPhone and iPad. MapBake prepares a source image, makes it tileable, estimates a complete material set, previews the result in 3D, and exports the conventions your target engine expects. IMPORT AND PREPARE • Import from Photos, Files, Camera, Clipboard, or drag and drop on iPad • Crop, rotate, flip, correct perspective, and normalize uneven lighting • Keep the original source intact while you experiment MAKE IT SEAMLESS • Create a horizontally and vertically tileable texture offline • The tile is rebuilt from patches of your photo, joined along cuts that follow real detail, so joins stay invisible and nothing is mirrored • One control trades keeping your source's structure against mixing it more freely • Inspect any map at 1×1, 2×2, 3×3, or 4×4 with zoom and pan GENERATE A COMPLETE PBR SET • Base Color, Height, tangent-space Normal, Roughness, Metallic, and Ambient Occlusion • Useful deterministic estimates designed to be adjusted—not false claims of recovering perfect physical properties from one photo • Fast working previews with full-resolution recomputation when you export PREVIEW THE MATERIAL • Physically based RealityKit preview on a plane, sphere, cube, or rounded cube • Neutral, soft, outdoor, overcast, warm, high-contrast, and dark studio lighting • A directional key light you can sweep and lower to rake across the surface, so relief in the height and normal maps actually reads • Inspect scale, tiling, reflections, normal response, roughness, and metallic behavior EXPORT FOR YOUR TOOLS • Unity Built-in, URP, HDRP, Unreal Engine, Godot, Blender, OpenGL, and DirectX profiles • Automatic normal Y conversion, roughness/smoothness conversion, and standard packed maps • PNG output at 256, 512, and 1024 in the free app • MapBake Pro is a one-time purchase that removes ads and adds 2K/4K export, custom RGBA packing, and saved custom presets No account is required. Source images and generated materials are processed on-device and stay local unless you explicitly export or share them.
