Run Scripts from Command Line

Hello everyone,

I have been using Adobe Substance 3D Sampler for a while now and I have been wondering if there is a way to write scripts for it from the command line and execute them. I have been searching for information on this topic but I have not found any clear answers yet.

I think that being able to write scripts from the command line would be very useful, especially for automating repetitive tasks or for batch processing multiple images. It would save a lot of time and effort in the long run.

Does anyone know if it is possible? If so, could you please post some ressources or tips? 🙂

Thank you in advance for your help!

    Mac is always special.

    You need open Adobe Substance 3D Sampler.app with "Show package content" to use the real .app

    Here is the command:

    /Applications/Adobe\ Substance\ 3D\ Sampler/Adobe\ Substance\ 3D\ Sampler.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe\ Substance\ 3D\ Sampler --run-script

    Hello,

     

    You can develop scripts for Sampler to automate tasks or batch operations:

    https://substance3d.adobe.com/documentation/sadoc/create-a-script-with-python-234455544.html

    The Python API documentation is available directly from Sampler > Help > Python API documentation

     

    From the command line, you can launch your script like this:

    "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Substance 3D Sampler\Adobe Substance 3D Sampler.exe" --run-script <script.py>

     

    Thanks

    Hey,

     

    thank you so much! Is there any way to do that on Mac too? I adjusted the path (currently in Applications) 

     

    "Adobe\ Substance\ 3D\ Sampler/Adobe\ Substance\ 3D\ Sampler.app" --run-script random_seed_variations.py

     

    but I still get an error message "command not found"...

     

    Thanks in advance!
