Hi,I am using substance stager 2023, and when I use the paint material preset from the browser and play with the paint peeling effect it creates a really blocky output, regardless of the selected resolution. In the image the texture resolutions was set up as 2048px. I was just wondering if this is the intended effect or if I am not doing something correctly. Also, the paint grain intensity seem to have no visual effect on any meshes from playing around with the sliders.Any help anyone could provide would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Hello, How can i access the emulation mode on a MacBook Pro M1 Pro?

Hi community,I imported a model from dimension.I did some work on model and started circle animation, but model circles vertical and not horizontal.Trying to rearrange model to the ground failed.Now I see strange xyz signs never seen before. see screenshot.What´is wrong there.How can I solve that? Please help.ThanksHans

I am getting pretty good results with Stager in general.Especially with glass renders, I am very impressed.One thing that seems missing is a simple tickbox to add caustics for when the light streams through a drinking glass for example.That would add a lot of realism.

Habe ich das alles richtig Verstanden? Aus Substance 3D kann man aktuell eine Videos rendern. Bewegende Objekte und Kamerafahrten sind nicht möglich. Man kann lediglich Standbilder rendern. Sind solche Funktionen geplant und wenn ja, bis wann kann man damit rechnen? Die Frage stellt sich für uns aktuell, da wir entsprechende Arbeitsplätze in den nächsten Wochen ausstatten und entscheiden müssen welche 3D Software wir im Unternehmen einführen.?

Hello and good morning,I downloaded a free 3D model this morning ( .obj ) and tried to move the pivot point,but 3D Stager really doesn't do a good job. It is so restricted in how it is able to pivot.It seems that any obj file that is NOT craeated in Stager does not have the ability to really move thatpivot point around at all.  IF you use a pre-defined 3D ojbect that comes with 3D stager, the controlis a bit better, but still very lacking.  For example, if you want to move the pivot point away from theobject, it is 100% impossible to do this.  I would love to see the ability to manually place the pivot point of an object anywhere you want it. I really hope that in future releases that we will see a more powerful pivot tool.  Thanks for listening ( message for the Adobe 3D Stager engineers )

Hello,Is it possible to duplicate a graphic that you have imported into 3D Stager ?I imported a .png file, and wish to use it 2 times on an object, but do not see any way toduplicate the .png file.  I've tried right clicking on the png file in the material area and there is no optionto duplicate it.  Thanks for any help !

Stager doubles the cost ... what can it do for me that 3DSMax can't? In addition the CC "All apps" doesn't include Substance 3D? And finally, I've been paying $53/mo for years and now I see "All apps" listed at $40/mo?  How does one go about getting the lower monthly rate? Cheers, Rob.

I've figured out how to import an .obj file from Illustrator into 3D Stager,however, once the very simple obect is inside 3D Stager, I cannot edit any part of the oject.All I wanted to do is extrude the object a little bit less, but there are NO options to do so.Any help is appreciated, thank you !( Am I exporting the 3D object from Illustrator incorrectly ? ) ( by the way, I extruded the shape in Illustratorusing the new 3D panel and then chose to export it as an .obj )

I would like to use my real estate interior photos and restage the furniture/lighting to show my clients.  Any thoughts, suggestions on how to do this with 3D Stager?  

Hello  I'm having an issue that is frustrating me quite a bit - I am using stager to render out some product images and most of the labels are on vials of glass material.  However when i apply a decal it is visible on the inside aswell (mirrored as if the label was see through).  Anyone have a solution for the decal to just be visible on the outside of the surface?  All searches i see wis about decals on solid surfaces which is a non issue in this regard.  Adding a render to show what i mean.  Anyone have a suggestion?  

Hello I am looking for ways to project 2D vector graphics from Illustrator onto a 3D element. Preferably live view using perhaps a plugin or be able to update the view in 3D after adjustments in the 2D graphics.And finally be able to export to a universal viewing format.Thanks in advance. All the bestKasper

Hi everyone, i think in this update 2.0 many users will be happy with the major update named Turntable Animation. I put the link with all updates here and i can say, this new turntable option is very useful.Update, test, use and enjoy !!!https://substance3d.adobe.com/documentation/sg/version-2-0-0-244777138.html

I'm liking the animation features on stager so far. I rendered out my first comp but when I open the PSD sequence on After effects, i am not able to isolate the model. If i open the individual PSD files on the sequence however, I can hide the background from the layers. is there a way to do this in a batch way? So i don't have to open all 200psd files and hide each background independetly? 

Hello, I have multiple GPUs but it seems that Stager is only able to use 1. Is there a way to fix that? Thank you

Hello, Whenever I turn on the ray tracing preview in Stager, everything has a yellow tint to it. See screenshot below: It looks almost as if there is a light with a yellow color in the scene, but I only have the environment light turned on and it is set to pure white. I have only experienced this issue in versions 1.3.0 and later. Any ideas what might be causing this? Thanks!

I'm looking to create a 3D model of a garment (tee, hoodie, etc.) and then generate multiple versions of it with alternate graphics and colors. does substance family offer any scripting capability?when I add an image, is it linked to the file on my mac which I can switch to change the model?any suggestions on how to achieve that?thank you!

Hi, I'm trying to make a honey material in Stager, but cannot make something realistic. I am not sure the renderer supports enough subsurface scattering parameters at the moment. I'd appreciate any hint, thanks!

When a Substance has inputs whose visilibity is governed by conditionals, Stager always displays them regarless of the condition. Stager 1.3.2 Release.

Hello,I created a table in Substance Designer and want to import it in Stager. But the file .sbs is not in the list of files in open dialog. How can I import objects created in Designer into Stager? Im on trial if it matters. 

Hello, I was thinking if it's possible to open fur/hair archives in stager? If don't it would be a awesome addition 

I've been trying  a number of things to get my render to match what I see in the design window with little success.  My background image gets stretched, usually horizontally, with the addition of a grey border (see attached screenshots. My specific goal is to add some 3D text with a glass material to a high resolution image. I've tried using the match image feature, setting the output resolution of the camera output to match the original resolution of the image, turning on and off the override camera size in the render settings and using different background images.One screen shot is of the design mode and the other is the output of that screen after rendering.I'm guessing this is easy to do but I just can't seem to get it.  Thanks for any help.  George

Procedural models can generate meshes with geometries disconnected from each other. When exporting the object, Stager exports each separate geometry as a separate mesh. Please provide an option to export as a single mesh.
