Toolivance Mockup Master: The Ultimate User Guide

Transform your flat designs into high-converting, 4K print-ready mockups in seconds.

πŸš€ 1. Quick Start: Your First Mockup

Toolivance Mockup Master is designed for speed. There are two primary workflows depending on your needs:

A. Scene Pack Mode

(Single Design β†’ Multiple Scenes)
Use this when you have one new design and want to generate a variety of marketing photos for your Etsy listing.

  • Select Mode: Choose Scene Pack on the Dashboard.
  • Upload Design: Select your design (PNG/JPG) in the Single Input Image section.
  • Pick Templates: Browse the Template Gallery and select the scenes you love.
  • Set Export Path: Choose where you want the final files saved.
  • Build: Click πŸš€ Build Scene Pack.

B. Batch Mode

(Multiple Designs β†’ One Scene)
Use this when you have a large collection (e.g., 50 coloring pages) and want to apply them all to the same professional mockup.

  • Select Mode: Choose Batch Mode.
  • Select Source: Pick the folder containing all your design files.
  • Pick One Template: Select the specific scene you want to use for the entire batch.
  • Process: Click πŸš€ Start Batch Process and grab a coffee while we do the work.

πŸͺ„ 2. Custom Template Studio (Pro Feature)

Don't just use our built-in scenesβ€”build your own private production line. By importing your own background scenes and setting custom warp points, you can automate your signature brand aesthetic.

How to create your own automated template:

  1. Import Background: Click 'Create Template' and upload your unique base photo (e.g., a picture of your own wooden desk).
  2. Set the Warp Region: Drag the 4 or 8 perspective points to define exactly where the design should be placed (e.g., matching the curve of a physical notebook page).
  3. Add Overlays (Optional): Add realistic shadows or foreground objects to create depth.
  4. Save & Automate: Name your template. You can now use it in Batch Mode to instantly generate hundreds of mockups using your exclusive background.

🎨 3. Scene Tweaks: Perfecting the Look

Want a unique look? The Template Studio (V1.5) gives you professional-grade control without the Photoshop learning curve.

Perspective Warp (8-Point Mode)

Precision Alignment: Drag the corner points to map your design onto the background.

Pro Tip: For open books or curved journals, enable 8-point page mode to perfectly match the natural fold and contour of the pages.

Scene Decor (Shadows & Overlays)

  • Shadow Overlays: Add realistic leaf or window shadows to create depth and "vibe."
  • Foreground Overlays: Place objects (like plants or pens) in front of your design for a 3D effect.
  • Dynamic Tuning: Use the Scale and Opacity sliders to fine-tune the intensity of your decor.
πŸ’‘Hint: You can drag overlays directly on the canvas and use your mouse wheel to zoom for pixel-perfect placement.

✨ 4. The Pro Power: 4K AI Upscaling

Toolivance isn't just a mockup toolβ€”it's a 画质 (image quality) engine.

One-Click Delivery Pack (Pro Feature)

When you use the Delivery Pack button, Toolivance performs two tasks simultaneously:

Master Copy (4K)

Our built-in Real-ESRGAN AI Engine takes your original design (even if it's only 1024px) and upscales it to a crisp, 300 DPI, 4K print-ready file.

Marketing Copy

We generate the high-resolution scene mockup for your shop front.

AI Engine Settings

In the Settings tab, you can customize how the AI works:

  • Upscale Method: We recommend AI Sharpness (Real-ESRGAN) for the most professional results.
  • Compute Mode: Set to Auto to let the software choose between your GPU or CPU for the fastest rendering.

βš™οΈ 5. Managing Your License

Free vs. Pro Tier

  • Free Starter:
    Access basic templates, up to 30 generations per month with a subtle watermark.
  • Pro Active:
    Unlimited generations, 4K AI Upscaling, 8-Point Warp, all templates unlocked, and zero watermarks.

Activation

  1. Copy your Gumroad License Key.
  2. Go to the Settings tab in Toolivance.
  3. Enter your email and key, then click Activate Pro.

FAQ & Troubleshooting

Why is my first 4K export slow?

The AI engine needs a few seconds to "warm up" during its first run. Subsequent exports will be significantly faster.

Where are my files?

Check your designated Export Path. Pro users will see two folders: master-copy and marketing-copy.
