Hi ! I want to create draft or medium quality renderings but I only got it once. Since 3 days impossible to return an image because it is blocked at 50%, the timer increases, increases and never stops. I just place two lights, check and replace heavy materials, lower the settings for rendering but nothing changes. I don't know what's different with my first and only successful render (I'm just adding a little decal). Thank you !

I've switched to Substance from Dimension and noticed that after creating 3D text, the side, Face, bevel and back are linked to the same color. Add a different color to one and it colors all sides and I can't figure out how to separate them. In dimension I didn't have this problem.

There is a way to do an export from the substance Stage without a background. I know we can choose between psd and png but still png comes with viewport background. Is there a trick that I don't know about to export only the shape (light, shadow, textures...) ? Thanks.

Hej 🙂There is a problem with embedding review links in the Adobe website, the systems report a connection error. This causes the product not to be displayed on my website.Plis Help 😞  

In Substance 3D Stager, I am trying to fit 3d models into a photograph, replacing objects already in the photo. How can I get a wireframe view to see how the model fits over the object it replaces? Even making the model transparent would be a help. I need to be able to go from solid to see through. Right now, the 3D model covers everything, and I have no idea if it is positioned right.

I can't figure out how to move the gizmo. I imported an .obj with a bunch of models, and I'm only using one of them. Currently it's positioned quite a bit to the left of the 3d model, it's positioned in the center of the original obj, but with the other objects gone it's gone off-side.  Update: my bad. the original additional objects were still in the group. Removed them, set the pivot to "centered", and it's useable. I'd still like to move the pivot manually, but this'll work for now.

Hi Community,I've posted previously regarding a rotational animation of a model I built, where elements within the model rotate on a completely different axis point. This is maddening, and still happens occasionaly.  New issue with Stager animation; now when I try to adjust the duration of the animation, or the angle of the animation, nothing registers, nothing changes.  It has been updated to 3.2.1.  This software is becoming unuseable.  It's the most expensive "add-on" to my Adobe suite, and I'm realizing it's not worth it.  Anybody experiancing the same?  Or does anyone use similar software they could recommend?

Stager is the only program I've ever used where saving doesn't mean it's saved. I just lost two days of work even after saving constantly. Stager turned grey this morning and I couldn't even exit out. After I restarted my computer, it showed that my file hadn't been saved in over a day. This isn't the first time, and it happens to my coworkers as well. It seems like you have to save as constantly and then double check the file location to make sure that it actually saved. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Unable to open saved stager files. I am up against a deadline and now I cannot open a saved stager file. NOT the first time this has happened! VERY FUSTRATING!

Very frustrating, hours of work wasted.

Hi,I'm working on 3D models for a website, and for the overview we need all models to have the same angle to avoid it looking messy.I've tried playing around with the camera position, and saving the x, y, z numbers, but it never ends up looking the same. Any advice? 

Hello tout le monde,Substance me donne envie de le fuir comme pas possible.J'importe en FBX sur Painter, depuis impossible de le ré-exporter facilement en un clic ou un tour de main.Outre les multi-suggestions ultra-verbeuses du logiciel, il ne restaure pas l'objet avec les modifications que je lui donne.Non, il veut bien me donner soit le maillage, soit les textures.Je veux juste faire une modification mineure sur mon objet dans la suite Substance je suis obligé de passer par Stager et celui-ci ne veut pas me le rendre en format FBX.Résultat j'ai mon objet en format OBJ ou GTLF et quand je l'importe dans Unreal Engine, il est explosé en toutes les parts qui peuvent être peignables et impossible dans Unreal de les associer pour en re-créer un. J'ai beau chercher partout comment tout associer, nulle part. ChatGPT me dit que je dois repasser par Blender.Puis Substance m'impose aussi son répertoire. Je viens du répertoire de ma librairie Blender, il veut me déplacer l'objet dans son réper

Hi, I'm having an issue uploading the following files into Stager. https://limewire.com/d/2b94f53f-ab11-463a-975a-7a454a15a405#55dcV8ndSMmdfyGGclMYYNwKxmWORD_I-QZVMHVUmzACan anyone offer any advice? Thanks

This seems to be a pretty straightforward and very important discussion! -- maybe Adobe team can just respond for everyone's benefit? 🙂Rendering at a higher resolution (300dpi+) - for printRendering at whatever resolution (72min, looks good) - for web/digital Unlike Dimension, there is no "resolution" selection(s). You can select Full/1-2/1-4 under "Resolution".A standard magazine full-page ad at 8.5x11.Stager Resolution (setup)- Full and let's go with High/Ultra Presets.In a different post, somone said - Oh, yeah it comes out at 72dpi. "Just open it in Photoshop" change the Image size settings to 300dpi."  It's fine.   Huh?Anytime you blow up an image at 72dpi to 300dpi (example), you will always lose quality, starting from 72dpi...Can Adobe explain?  Does DPI no longer matter? Is Stager rendering at a massive DPI and when you open it and change it to 300, the 72dpi doesn't matter, it's actually not 72dpi? Maybe someone can explain a potentially entire

In MacOS the button "Load" in Substance 3D Panel don't open the browser to select a "sbsar" file.

I'm working on AltspaceVR and other platforms and wonder if Substance is a good option to combine with Unity. Any thoughts?

Hello community, I have several appliance models that I need to record a 360º rotation, all have been successful.  My last 2 are demonstrating some odd behavior:  I've placed all the items for the object I need to rotate into one folder (which I've done for all the previous objects).  I've selected the folder to rotate, but when I play the rotation, only part of the object rotates, not the whole shape.  Weird...  My other model shows a different, but equally puzzling result: The entire model rotates, but one part of the model rotates at a different pace, like slower or something.  They all return to their correct position, but again, weird...  If anyone has experianced this, let me know if there's somethinhg I'm doing wrong, or if this is a bug YouTube links to both examples below  .https://youtu.be/-0pYlBl8AWg https://youtu.be/NKsUce2Sa_4

Is anyone familiar with how to make the background of a PNG render transparent? I recall doing so in Painter but it seems that Stager is a bit different.  Any and all help is appreciated, thanks! 

  HUGE news for the Substance 3D ecosystem: today we’re launching unmetered access to the complete Substance 3D Assets library for Adobe Substance 3D subscribers. This means that every Substance subscriber on a Collection or Texturing plan has access to the full collection of nearly 20,000 professional materials, models and lighting environments without managing points.   Moreover, this also means that Student licenses will now have access to 3D Assets.   Head over to our post about this on the Adobe blog to learn more, or go to Substance 3D Assets right now to see what you can start creating.

Hi All I am just trialling Substance (previously a Keyshot user). One of the things I am struggling to succeed with is Brushed Metal on a 6 sided shape. Each edge is rounded For some reason, Stager is putting the brush strokes in the correct direction, but on the rounded edges it is canging the orientation of the brush strokes by 90 degrees which is incorrect. Do you have any thoughts on how to correct this? It gives best results using UV projection. I have tried the other two projection types. Here is a screenshot of the issue. The green lines show the brush strokes behaving correctly, but the red ones on the radiused edge are incorrect. https://app.screencast.com/1qO5dxDHr6xBK Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

When trying to access “Libraries” a dialogue box pops up that says “Share and update team assets smoothly” with “Skip” and “Next” buttons. Choosing either button takes you to a dialogue box that says “Browse libraries in business storage” with a “Done” button. At this point the button is unresponsive and I cannot get rid of the dialog box to access any libraries. Any ideas? THANKS in advance!

Hi Community, Is there a easy way to cancel a 3D Model to Image generated render and revert to the initial object ?I found how to hide or see the object guide but not how disable the effect applied.Any assistance would be appreciate.Thanks

Selling a Substance material as part f a 3D model is not permissable. But selling a Stager Product with the substance material ? Since the buyer must have a Substance license it must be permissable right?

Hello I have added 3D text to the sides of a cube. When i rotate the cube, the text moves with the sides in design. However, when i use the timeline to preview the render, the text does not move with the cube. I have merged all the text and the cube but it does not seem to work as a single object. Is it possible to add 3D text to a 3D shape and then use the rotate/spin rendering? Thank you Stuart

Does Stager support remote scripting the same way Painter does?From my own testing and the official docs is does not seem to, but I just want to make sure.
