* The Material library and HDRI Library depends on ambientcg.com and Polyhaven.com for textures and HDRIs and requires an active internet connection to download new textures. (Although you can use already downloaded textures and HDRIs from the offline section). Just keep in mind if in an extremely rare situation the site is down (or API becomes paid) you won't be able to use the online library. Using a VPN can also sometimes cause connection problems.
