Questions

Hi all, I'm new to Substance Designer 3D, having used C4D and Blender a bit in the past.I'm trying to create some extruded text, with bevelled edges and to bend it, in Substance Designer 3D.I believe I need to use a Text Node to do this, but can't find it in the list of nodes when I right-click on the graph.Is this because I'm using the trial version?In addition the Node Toolbar isn't visible in the interface, Adobe's documentation indicates it should be visible: https://helpx.adobe.com/uk/substance-3d-designer/using/interface-overview.htmlAny help is much appreciated!

Hi guys, I'm trying to create a function that says: if ''white'' is above 0.5, then it is 0.5. But I don't know how to tell designer what is ''white''. I guess that would be in a level after my FX map. I'm trying to fix the color stacking when my leaves goes above each other: 

Unsure if this is a bug or I am just missing something. I have a material that I have created in Sampler which I have then exported to Designer for rendering with the PBR Render node. The material shows correctly in both Sampler and Designer, but when I feed it into the PBR Render node (in a separate graph) either as an SBSAR or with raw maps I get banding in the height map despite it being 16-bit. Anyone have a similar issue that they were able to resolve? Designer Version: 12.2.1 build 5947Sampler Version: 3.3.2Windows 10 Pro 21H2 build 19044.1889 Realtime Designer Render   PBR Render 

Hi Adobe Substance 🙂 I started a trial of the Adobe Substance Suite. Can you update the designer training material? 1. Can you replace the .rar file with a zip file? (See Screenshot) Here's the referring url, https://substance3d.adobe.com/tutorials/courses/First-Steps-with-Substance-3D-Designer/youtube-22fZAM6r6Hg

Hi, I have recived this warning in console, [WRN][1624][GraphRender]Mix graphOutputs and compNodes isn't supported !No other message.Any suggestion on wich node may cause this warning?How can I resolve? Thankyou. 

Hi there,I just started a trial version of Substance 3D modeller but also just found 3d designer which might be more suited to my project.- Is it suited and can i adapt these patterns for 3d printing eg. as stl files?Really new to this and have more experience with rhino but wondering if this might be easier and faster?Once learnt of course.really appreciate feedback, thanks. 

Why a so basic node as Symmetry has only a Color version and not a Grayscale?substance3d.adobe.com/documentation/sddoc/symmetry This forces us to use two extra nodes (hence, add complexity)• A Gradient Map to convert from gray to color• And another Grayscale Conversion to convert from color to grayThe Mirror node (as many other basic ones) has both versions, Color and Grayscale. But not so Symmetry.Not a tragic thing, but it seems like an incomprehensible forgetfulness or absence…

Familiar with Sampler but not Designer. I have created a base material in Sampler which was sent to Designer. I cannot find any instructions on how to begin a project starting Designer with an sbs file. Eventually fluked that double clicking would placed the nodes in the graph, etc. But there is no way to connect the nodes to enable further editing. Where do I find this information?

Hey guys. Is there a way to do some iterate (for each) with some ordinary nodes like directional warp? I only find iterate node in fx-map, but how can it work with direcional warp? I don't want to rebuild the existed node in fx-map myself, i think it's a waste of the existed resource. So, can anyone help me? Appreciate it.

Hi, is there a way in designer to bake multiple albedo maps to one?Example - A hi res character made up with 2k textures, Each mesh set up with UVs in 0-1 space (so the overlap)- Head - Upper Body- Lower BodySo I need to bake all textures down so all 3 fit in 0-1 space in a 2k textureIs it possible? 

Hi gang!First of all...  sorry, wee bit offtopic but...  deep & warm compliments for this amazing software environment!  I've bought myself the Steam version a few months ago (Substance Designer & Painter) and it didn't take long for Designer in specific to leave a huge impact on my 3D setup (mainly consisting of Daz Studio & ZBrush). From further enhancing / editing base materials from Painter to designing whole new textures and material presets, I'm still quite excited about all the stuff I can do right now! Totally amazing! Now... I'm still studying (getting my fingers behind functions) and when reading up in the manual about Exposing parameters I learned that there are only 2 options: expose a single parameter or do a batch expose. This section also tells us that static parameters cannot be exposed. Thing is... I think I discovered a loophole, but I'm not 100% sure if this is intended behavior. I've added the "Messy Fibers 1" noise gen

Unable to aquire Student Licencing for adobe Substance 3d,  (charging  50 dollars for 4 apps (as an individuals ) meaning in total we"d have to pay between 40 and 60 dollars total) when the apps that were free  to students originally on substance.com,  and  the Adobe Suite, doesnt include them at all, I am unable to use them except in trial form, for 30 days... which is quite inconvienient for  any students persuing game design like myself, who require them...That being stated , the legacy software will become more and more antiquated as time goes on,, causing incompatability issues as the new suite becomes more and more advanced  is this an error that is being rectified, since it is reletivly newly integrated, or something? (i wasnt sure where to submit feedback for this, 

Hi All, Wondered if I had missed something, running sbsrender.exe on command line at the moment I'm having to create a separate set of code to manage each sbsar I run, they all share some inputs but then I sub class that in python and add whatever is unique to each material before using subprocess to run it. This is all ok, but I'd like to make it more automated, I can pass info to the archive and get a list of the inputs back as below and it's got the type which is great but I'd like to get the default range as well or perhaps pull in the description and parse thatfor all the float values this is not a problem as I make sure I normalise all of the inputs into the 0-1 range but for ints it would be nice to have the range / description, example below.  I can do something hacky like adding the range into the name of the input for ints and do it like that but wondered if there was an official way or if I had missed an option somewhere     

HelloIs there any way to reduce only the size of the buttons on the SD interface without using the windows 10 settings?another question :how can i set the 3d viewport to maximum quality?thanks

Hi, months ago and after aqusition of Allegorithmic by Adobe, I recieved my free Substance student license through this address:https://substance3d.adobe.com/education/ And I was happy with my working licences which are still valid until next year. Then I saw this message o Substance Launcher anoonucing the EOL on 30th of September, 2022. I was wondering how can I transfer theses licences into my Adobe account?Thank you in advance.

Hello, I am a beginner to Substance Designer and I have been trying to create a bismuth material using the Shape Splatter node. I've used this node before in beginner tutorials, and it always seems that when I use it, I get banding/stretching along the outsides of the shapes. I have seen similar posts online with similar issues, but the solutions have not worked for me. I've changed my material size from 2048 to 4096 (which helped some but not much), checked the bit depth and size of the nodes, changed the height scale, and increased the tesselation factor to max, none of which have gotten rid of the banding. Does anybody have any suggestions? I feel like I could be going about this incorrectly, or I'm glancing over a solution. I've attached two images and my file if anyone is willing to look. Thank you!

Hellow! Sorry for strange question: - we know that subs painter can paint the surface of any 3d-object - so my qustion is: - can we use subs designer- texturing 3d-object- in interaction to geometry? For example We boolean-substracted  a thick-star from a cube in half of a height of this starCAN I MAKE "STONE" CRACKS FROM END POINTS OF THIS STAR IN DESIGNER?can designer catch star's end-point in geometry aspect?Can designer aware end-points of the star?

Is there a way to reorder multiple parameters in the Input Parameters>Parameters tab at the same time.  Ex.  Say I have 5 exposed parameters at the bottom of the Parameters tab stack and I want to move them to the top of my stack above other exposed parameters simultaneously.  Ideally I would like to ctrl click on the chosen exposed parameters in the stack and then drag them to the top.  Is there away I can accomplish this same task WITHOUT individually clicking and dragging individual exposed parameter separately? Hope this makes sense.  Thx in advanced! 

Hello How can I put in the library a tree of nodes made by me that I use a lot? thanks

I am writing a custom script for Substance Designer and want to use the Python API rather than the soon-to-be-deprecated scripting feature. Where can I find the functionality of the getGraphExportOptions callback in the Python API? I see the other four callbacks (related to file save and file load) but nothing related to the export options. Thank you for your help!

I have steam version of SD 12.2.1 and I would like to use python API for automation, however the pysbs version I have is incompatible with my SD version. How can the pysbs packege be updated?  The package xxx.sbs has been created with a newer version of SBS format (1.1.0.202202 / 1.1.0.202202), which is incompatible with the one supported by the API (1.1.0.202005 / 1.1.0.202005).
