3D Capture removed in Sampler 5.1 — no way to revert to 5.0
Hello,
After updating to Substance 3D Sampler 5.1, I noticed that the 3D Capture feature is now disabled with the message “The 3D capture feature is no longer supported.”
What makes this even more confusing is that the Creative Cloud product page for Sampler still lists 3D Capture as a main use case, complete with description and promotional images — which suggests it’s still available in the latest version, while it’s not.
To make things worse, there’s currently no official way to install version 5.0 (or earlier) anymore:
The “Other Versions” option in Creative Cloud doesn’t list it.
The Help Center has no download links for older installers.
Why the 3D Capture feature has been disabled?
Can you provide an official way for users to install Sampler 5.0 (or earlier) if they still need 3D Capture? This would help a lot of users who rely on this workflow.
I already posted a short comment under the “Substance 3D Sampler 5.1 has just been released!” announcement thread here, but I believe this issue deserves a dedicated discussion.
Thank you for your clarification and support.
