Bug Reports

In the Adobe Learn online documentation, most videos for Substance 3D Stager are missing. For instance, the Quickstart Guide for Substance 3D Stager has minimal text and no video. These resources have been important to my students learning the software; are there plans to add them back to the site?

rendering crashes yet again this bug makes it unusable  

I am using the latest version of Stager and like many others, am experiencing the blank screen problem. I have tried every suggested -- deleting aero$ folders, checking graphics card, all of it. Nothing works. I can't even close the program without using forced quit. Unless someone can suggest something that actually works, I'm going to uninstall and try to forget this program. Adobe? On windows 10.

In Stager when I switch on Raytracing the GPU takes over and it raytraces in the window. But when I switch from Design to Render the GPU fails to load and switches to CPU rendering. An error pops up and I’m attaching the log it points to. It wouldn’t let me upload the log file without being zipped.CPU Rendering doesn’t do anything though, the render window never renders but says it’s rendering. When ever I switch between design / render now it warns me it’s rendering and switching will cancel it. But it doesn’t cancel it, it’s just stuck in rendering nothing.

I have a USDZ file that is only 33.8MB that images fine on my Mac in Preview and QuickLook, but when I try and import it into Stager, after it thinks for a few seconds, and the progress bar is about half way through, it pops up a dialog saying it can’t import it and report it here;Unfortunately I can’t share the data, but if there’s something I can check locally happy to do it.

I'm encountering a couple issues.  Anyone else on an an M1 Mac noticing that none of the Generative AI features work at all?  Like, there isn't any notification saying "this feature isn't available" or "unable to…" or anything.  No progress bar or indicator that stalls, literally just nothing happens.  Am i the only one that's happening to?  Plus, 50% of the time I do a "replace object…" it's another instance where nothing happens.  It's not a full crash, because I can still click on menus and palettes, just nothing that would actually trigger an action within the document.  Any ideas?

「nvidia rtx4070ti」を使ってますがGPUの不具合と表示されます。Vulkanの初期化失敗、描画エラーのループです。「radeon rx9060xt」でも同様の不具合が見られました。geminiに聞いても直らなかったです。早急に修正してほしいです。本当の本当に困ってます。

I'm on a M1 Max Macbook Pro and just started trying to use Substance 3D Stager specifically to try to use the generative AI features.  I set up the prompt, i pick options (or leave the options unchanged) and hit the generate button and nothing happens.  No "worrking on it," no "failed," no "generative features unavailable" no nothing.  Any ideas how to actually make this stuff work?

I can't export a model that I previously made in Painter, directly into Stager. It gives me the "Unable to Import Model" error. I did update my software (it worked before that), so it might be a compatibility issue. But it shouldn't be, considering there is a workaround that more or less contradicts that: The model is fine, as I can send to After Effects without issues. Since After Effects doesn't "import" files, but links them, a temporary GLB file is created. I located that file from within AE in Windows explorer and imported it without issues into Stager. Assuming Painter tries to export to Stager similarly (either sending a GLB directly to Stager, or creating one in a temp folder like with AE), the error thus seems to be with the software itself. The file works. Painter exports fine and Stager imports fine. It's the link between those programs that seems broken somehow. I can work with this for now, but I figured it would be handy to let the world know!

Hi. For me the Exponential preset dosent loop, it clicks a couple of degreas when going to last frame. I spent hours trying to figure out why, i can only conlude its a bug? Dose enyone have a work around?  Kind regards,Martin

Hi everyone,   Some of you have reported a blank viewport at launch, preventing the use of the application. After an investigation on our end, it seems to be a compatibility issue with the latest NVIDIA drivers and our latest updates. We are already working on solutions with NVIDIA, but in the meantime, rolling back to version 537.x drivers seems to fix the issue.   We are sorry for the inconvenience, and thankful for your reports.    

プロセッサ 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-12700H (2.30 GHz)NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Laptop GPU Ver 580.97 約半年使えずにいます。早急の対応をお願いします。

My team uses box as our backup and versioning solution. We work from the client, which keeps an image of our folder structure on our local workstations and streams in the relevant file when it's in use. This is a vital workflow for our team, and it's needed to keep things backed up and easily accessible to distributed members. So, we're not changing that. However, when using Stager for mocking up 3D scenes, any PNGs, JPGs, OBJ, FBX (and probably more) will not open directly from the box client. On our end, it's the same as importing a file from our local files in the explorer (it looks the same, too). But Stager will refuse to import, giving an error message "There was a problem reading the file" or "UNABLE TO IMPORT MODEL: Stager supports poygon based geometry only. the file does not contain any supported content."I assume Stager is not allowing for the content to stream in before it checks for compatability, but I don't know for sure. I would love this to be fixed at s

So... I've been designing some 3D Art on Substance 3D Painter and when I go to Export the 3D Project to Substance 3D Stager and I keep getting the error: I have the full package in my Adobe Creative Cloud and for some unknown reason... It's not allowing me to connect and edit... I've already uninstalled and reinstalled and the error is still happening

I added a library of materials to use in Substance 3D Stager but there are no thumbnails. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app, tried adding a new library and dragging in materials one by one, but nothing works. Substance 3D Stager version 3.1.3 on Windows

I recently downloaded the Substance 3D suite and seem to be having a problem when I try to import and place an image on a model. When I select the part of the model to upload the image, it just stays in a "loading" status and never uploads. Am I doing something wrong? Does anyone else have this issue?

I keep getting GPU rendering error - moments after I turn GPU rendering on under ray tracing. My drivers are all up-to-date.

Hello, I've been having issues with a file.It appears to be unable to load the render motor ever since I tried rendering just once.

SOS i am stuck here, I need to edit this file and submit this project. It worked perfectly fine yesterday importing objects, i saved and closed the app no problem. Opened the app and can't load my file, someone please help!!!!! Log attached

I've been unable to use my GPU using Stager since I began using the suite.  I have a pretty good graphics card.  (NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060).  Please help.  Error said to post the log file to this forum.

Out of nowhere Substance won't load on my Macbook Pro.
