Thank you for reading the documentation. 4AM Textures features a powerful tagging and search system that should make it easy to find a bunch of textures to your liking. Here is how you use it. If you want to upload instead, see the posting guide.

Operators

AND use && between terms. Both must match: stone && tileable

OR use || between terms. Either can match: reference || mud

NOT prefix a term with ! to exclude it: stone && !wet. You can also negate a whole group: !(wet || muddy)

Grouping use ( ) to control order of operations: pbr && (wood || metal)

Filters

byUser: show only uploads from a specific contributor. Accepts a username or numeric ID: byUser:Alice or byUser:42

isBundle:true show only bundles. isBundle:false show only individual textures.

Good to know

Search matches both tags and titles. You dont need to know the exact tag name.

Matching is fuzzy, ston will find 'stone', 'sandstone', 'cobblestone' and so on.

Search is case-insensitive. Stone and stone return the same results.

Autocomplete suggestions appear as you type. After byUser: it will suggest matching usernames specifically.

Multi-word tags

Some tags are more than one word, like pixel art or seamless brick. A space in your search means AND, so typing seamless brick looks for items matching both "seamless" and "brick", which finds the seamless brick tag anyway, since each word is part of it.

Because matching is fuzzy, you rarely need the whole tag. Typing just seamless finds everything seamless, including 'seamless brick', 'seamless wood', and so on. Type more words to narrow it down, fewer to cast a wider net.

Examples

stone && pbr && !wet PBR stone textures that arent wet

byUser:Alice && tileable all tileable textures uploaded by Alice

isBundle:true && 4k only 4K bundles

pbr && (wood || metal) && tileable tileable PBR wood or metal

stone && !(wet || muddy) stone textures that are neither wet nor muddy
