Hello, I'm new to substance painter, so I'm not sure if this can be done. Basically, I have an outfit for my character inside of substance painter and I want to export the whole thing (mesh and textures) into unreal engine.  To give some context, I have designed this outfit in Marvelous Designer, but when I import the outfit into unreal engine, the textures look very low resolution and plasticy. I can drop a substance material asset onto the outfit, and it looks great, but it applies the same material to the whole outfit and I want seperate cloth materials for each garment.  There is probably some way to import the outfit into unreal engine as seperate meshes for each garment, but I have posted for help in the Unreal and Marvelous Designer forms and haven't found the solution yet. However, I can import the outfit into substance painter and assign seperate materials to each garment.  My only problem now is, I can't find any explanation on how to g

Hello, first time posting here but I need help with baking Normal Maps from high to low poly in painter, I keep getting these weird triangulation lines in painter and also when I preview in blender, but here's the thing I've tried almost every triangulation fix I could find on the internet, triangulate before exporting from blender done that same result, untick/tick average normals done that same result, tweak the Max and Min Frontal distance done that same result, tick/untick compute tangent space per fragment in product configuration done that also the same result, and the normal map is actually working the details are being transferred(mostly bevel info in my case) it's just these weird lines that arethe problems, ran out of options and I need help, thanks. These are the Images.Thanks.white is substance painter and black is blender.  

hello everyoneI want to render an object for my portfolioI see a lot of people changing the viewport to normal / height / AO to generate pictures like this (soldier on the right)the problem now is that I dont understand how im able to render the viewportI know that I can swap my viewport channel to AO / normal ... but whenever I try to render it it always renders the material not the mapany ideas?

 

Hi there, I am trying to bake my high poly model details into my low poly model but I am facing a problem where its not properly baking my details into my low poly model as you can see near the wheels. Can someone help meout here

Howdy all!!I was recently granted access to Substance 3D Painter on my workstation at my job. However, when I start up the program it closes immediately after the first splash screen. It closes without an error or message at all. I am scratching my head trying to figure out the issue to no avail. Any help will be much appreciated.

It is a bit hard to explain but here goes, A table asset has 2 uv sets, one will be using a tilable texture, and the 2nd will use a unique 0-1 layout for overlay for variation. Is there a way to use a tilable texture on 1st uv set and texture on the 2nd unique map on overlay mode?

I have this problem whenever I export my textures I can't see my entire output map names, which is getting very annoying since I usually only need the base color and height. I see the names fine on the List of Exports, but then I'd have to go back and forth to see whether I've unchecked the right boxes. I couldn't find anyone else haviong this problem, and I would really appreciate getting some help with this issue.  

I have been recently trying to bake a height map in substance painter but have been getting unexpected results. It appears to be capturing the sculpted details but also adds additional details that appear to match the wireframe of the lowpoly.

It keeps crashing when uploading an fbx, It just closes 😕😕 any fixes?

I have already baked mesh maps, such as normal, AO, etc. and imported them to the shelf.I hooked the imported maps into the fitting spot in the Texture Set Settings.However, my maps all show up with a big number (1) printed on top of them in the shelf and the maps are not showing up in the 3D, nor 2D view.There is an error message: Failed to decode bitmap.My file format is png. What can be wrong with it?

I'm new to Substance Painter and can't figure out why I'm unable to use the brush/fill tool. It doesn't work in either the 2D view or the 3D view though the material, when applied to everything, does work.

Baking in SubstancePainter causes strange shadows.I do not see any strange shadows in Maya.Unlocking the normals and increasing the polygon count did not fix it.Increasing the polygon count only made the strange shadows more detailed.The low polygon and high polygon models are the same.Please let me know how to solve this problem.I am using a translator, so my English may be strange, but thank you for reading.

Probably an obvious way to fix this but I couldn't figure it out but I have a layer of wood which has wood grain normal maps how can I erase them so that the place that I have a rivet doesn't have wood grain going through it?

So my issue is that I never use Save after the first time, I always use Save AS. Why? Because there isn't a native Incremental Save. So I never save over a previous save file, I always create another because I've had too many instances of programs crashing while saving. So yes this is minor but moving Save As to a sub menu has done nothing except make it take longer to save and require more mouse clicks. The dropdown menu doesn't feel less cluttered. Save and Save As are a pairing you'll see in nearly all software.  

Hello, I'm getting banding while using the position generator, as if it's tiling. See image below.  

Hi I would like to find out if my credits obtained are lost if I stop my subscription to painter ?  Thanks 

Hello, i'm exporting character from blender as fbx, then importing it in Substance, after this choose Edit -> Bake Mesh and then get some of meshes.But i need combined id(color) map mesh instead of separate id(color) map meshes for each material.How combined id(color) map mesh can be made?

I ran into a problem where certain shaders were not working.When I applied the shader, it turned pink and caused an error.The shader is EvolutionPBR_2018_5_0.glsl obtained the following sitehttps://www.warframe.com/steamworkshop/help/index.php?page=substance-painter-shaderIs there any solution other than lowering the substancepainter Version?substancepainter ver8.2.0windows10

Hi!  So, I am aware of all the settings being greyed out if an OCIO environment variable is found.  However Painter is saying the .ocio file cannot be found.  I confirmed its existence and it is working in Houdini, Unreal Engine, Nuke and After Effects.  Why isn't Painter recognizing it? Im on Windows 10 using Painter version  Substance 3D Painter, version 8.2.0Build 1987 - 772e8c568b0b05753504c17acf6c5f950b1c5093Thanks!

Hey there, I am making a Sci-Fi gun model that I want to showcase in Unreal Engine 5. I have decided to create the textures in Substance Painter and am having issues getting it to be consistent between the two.Posted below are examples of the shading differences between the applications. UE5 seems much more reflective then Substance at the same roughness level. I am using the UE4 packed template in Substance.Is there a way I could get Substance to have shading more like UE5 that way I could work on the textures knowing they will look accurate in UE5?I don’t have much experience working between UE5 and Substance so perhaps I missed something.Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!I also posted this on the Unreal Forums I'll update this if I find a solutionThanks a bunch!-Elliot Substance Painter UE5Substance painter UE5

Hi.So I am trying to texture a character, but I am finding it very difficult because the colors, contrast and hue is so different between viewport, Iray and blender cycles. I am kinda new to texturing and I am wondering if there is somthing I can do to align the 3 a little better.I am using the same HDR in all 3Thx Jimmi

We would like to automate our texture exports from Painter via Python.This works well via substance_painter.export.export_project_textures(settings).The `settings` look something like this:{ exportPath: "C:/test/", exportShaderParams: false, defaultExportPreset: "My_Preset", exportPresets: [{ name: "My_Preset", maps: [{ fileName: "/v001/asset_test/asset_test_v001_color(.$udim)", channels: [ { destChannel: "R", srcChannel: "R", srcMapType: "documentMap", srcMapName: "baseColor"}, { destChannel: "G", srcChannel: "G", srcMapType: "documentMap", srcMapName: "baseColor"}, { destChannel: "B", srcChannel: "B", srcMapType: "documentMap", srcMapName: "baseColor"} ]}, { fileName: "/v001/asset_test/asset_test_v001_metalness(.$udim)", channels: [{ destChannel: "L", srcChannel: "L", srcMapType: "documentMap", srcMapName: "metallic" }] }, { fileName: "/v00

Hi there, I've been desperately trying to find some info, but both resellers and Adobe cannot tell me how to license Substance under the new Adobe regime. - We license Adobe CC under FRL- We're on a network which has no internet access- We use the current licensing of Substance, which involves downloading a license file and pointing our Substance installs to the file. This works great, but I'm concerned Adobe may have screwed things up. My question is:We haven't migrated to the new Downloads area under Adobe, we still use the Allegorithmic one. If we migrate to the new Adobe one, have they screwed with the licensing scheme that Substance used before? Will the Adobe login enable me to download the license file, and run on an offline network?? That's all i need to know. I don't want FRL for Substance, i just want to know if we renew our Substance licenses, if we can use them offline exactly as we did when Allegorithmic owned the tools. Thanks for any and all
