Turn shader node groups into real custom nodes in seconds

Nodemancer Lite lets you promote shader (material) Blender node groups into a first-class custom node that appears in the Shift+A menu—just like built-in nodes. No scripting. No node tree clutter. Just clean, reusable nodes that expose the sockets you want to be modifiable, and hide the ones you want to stay constant to maintain consistency.

Product Description

The Problem

You've built an amazing shader or geometry node setup. But every time you need it, you have to:

• Append the node group manually
• Navigate through nested groups
• Expose the same inputs over and over

The Solution

Nodemancer Lite promotes your material node groups to custom nodes that:

• Appear directly in Shift+A menu
• Show only the inputs you want
• Organize into custom categories
• Survive Blender reinstalls

Features

Two-Click Promotion

Select any node group in your material → Click the (Nodemancer) Menu → "Promote (group) to Custom Node" → Done.

Project Organization

Keep your nodes organized in projects. Perfect for studios managing shared node libraries. Notes that you can add to the CNodes help you manage and locate them.
