Utility Tools

To streamline your workflow, PotaToon includes several utility tools:

1. Prefab Duplication

• Toolbar: PotaToon → Duplicate selected character to PotaToon character prefab

It creates a new prefab by duplicating the selected character. It automatically converts all associated materials to PotaToon-compatible shaders and prompts for a save path for the new prefab.

NOTE: Not all original material data is copied. However, similar texture names, colors, and numeric values are transferred automatically. Be sure to review the converted materials to ensure no important settings are missing.

2. Convert Materials Only

• Toolbar: PotaToon → Convert selected character materials to PotaToon materials

It converts the materials of the selected character to use the PotaToon shader without duplicating the prefab. As with duplication, some settings may not fully transfer—review and adjust as needed.

3. Material Finder

• Toolbar: PotaToon → View all materials using PotaToon Shader in this scene

This tool lists all PotaToon materials currently used in the scene.

• Click Select to highlight the material in the Inspector
• Click Find in Project to locate the material in the Project window
