# Installing Roof Tiles Generator

The [Roof Tiles Generator](https://blendermarket.com/products/roof-tiles-generator) is not an actual addon. This is an [Asset Library](https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/files/asset_libraries/introduction.html#what-is-an-asset), which contains Roof Tiles presets, materials and Geometry Nodes (generators). That means it is only necessary to add a new Asset Library in your Blender Preferences and set the Path to the floder with the *Roof Tiles Generator*.

Here is how you do it:

1. Download **ZIP files** and find them on your computer.

2. **Unzip** all archives to one folder. In this example: *D:\Blender Assets\Roof Tiles Generator.*

   Make sure all the files from all the archives are in the same folder.
