We're pleased to announce the release of the Substance 3D Addon Version 2.0, now compatible with Blender 4.0 and above.

Added/Updated:

  • The addon now works seamlessly with Blender versions 4.0 and higher.
  • A new checkbox in the addon preference that will allow you to enable or disable the fake user when creating a material.
  • A new checkbox in the addon UI to enable texture reloading only when modifying parameters, facilitating efficient material iteration and integration with Blender geometry nodes.

Fixed:

  • Resolved an issue where the emission intensity lingered after removing the emissive map channel, affecting material results.

Known Issues:

  • Occasionally, duplicating a material multiple times may result in an error.
  • In Blender version 4.0+, socket order may be disrupted after multiple enable/disable actions.

Hi @lisha_reynolds7728 , this was for an older version of our addon so the prerelease is no longer needed 🙂
You can simply download the addon from https://www.adobe.com/products/substance3d/plugins/substance-in-blender.html 
You'll need to download both the addon zip and scroll down to download the tools.zip

Cheers, Aldo

Hi @Yajush_Kalra4387 , the integration files can be found just slightly below the blue download button for the addon. You will see three options, please pick the one that corresponds to your operating system. See the image below.
The page should be: https://www.adobe.com/products/substance3d/plugins/substance-in-blender.html

Getting a traceback error for 4.0

Hi @Jordan26727273jorx , thanks for the heads up. Could you provide some additional info? What are the steps that lead to this traceback error? Can you share the console window error that appears for you when the traceback error occurs?

On Windows/Linux you can see it with "Window > Toggle System Console" from within Blender. On Mac you can see it by going to the Blender in the Applications folder > right click "show package contents" > MacOS > right click Blender > make alias > run the alias.

Best,
Aldo

Hi @shxsy , the add-on is actually now publicly available for download, so there is no need to sign up for prerelease. Check it out here: https://www.adobe.com/products/substance3d/plugins/substance-in-blender.html

 

First downlad the add-on file, then scroll down and download the integration tools file for your OS.

That is super great! I just have a strange bug: Everytime I change a material parameter when in Cycles render view, the change gets cancelled upon saving.

Hello, thanks for bringing this to our attention @Martin30340534i9kk . I am able to see this on my end too where saving appears to revert the last change in the viewport while in Cycles. Fortunately, it looks like switching in and out of Cycles will once again show the correct material state, so your parameter values are not being hard reset. Tracking this as a new issue.

Does it have anything to do with the Fake User functionality?

@Carnell The Creator the addon is now offcially released, so there is no need to go through the prerelease program 🙂

You can read our latest post about it here and download the latest version of the addon from our official page.

Happy Blending!
