Hi y'all,I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I've been using some limited spare time I have at work to research if there is an alternative software we can use for shrink sleeve design in regards to making an actual print file. I know this is probably a great application to use to make a 3D *mockup* of the design to show to customers, but we're the printer; not the designers. We're currently using Esko to warp and distort artwork so that it looks "straight" after the printed image is shrunk onto the container. It's about one of the clunkiest, heavy, slow-moving, digusting applications that probably exists in the whole world, and the licensing is insanely expensive (i.e. we're paying them an arm and a leg to stress us out). I want there to be an Adobe alternative SO BAD, but I just can't find many people talking about if this (or any other Adobe product) can be used as alternative. Is there any Adobe software that can apply distortion and warp *precisely* to

Whenever I placed a graphic (image) on any model in stager & render it, results are pixalated.I've tried image in high resolution with both jpg & png. but results are same.As Compared render with same settings in Dimension the results are way good then the stager.here are the comparison results of rendered model in stager vs dimesnion.

Hi all,I really would like to know if there is some way to continue working on PAINTER when you just applied some material / texture into STAGER.Let me be more crystal clear: I have simple meshes in stager that need to receive some material (in my case a CUP needs to get some glossy effect inside and some matte effect outside... very simply). I simply use the MAGIC WAND to select the inner and outer side of my cup and I manually apply those metherials. That's pretty good but if I need to change the base color of my material for a SECOND CUP, every time I must use again the MAGIC WAND and pay attention to all its limitations...Is there a way (for example) to pass this STAGER work into PAINTER to continue texturing?Thank you

So here we are, almost into March of 2024,and still you have NO option to export a transparent mov from Stager, and NO optionto even export a transparent .png file.  This is the reason why people are moving away from thissoftware that is NOT meant for serious designers.  Super frustrating.  This issue goes way back in time,and still exists today.  Look at Adobe's site for Stager, nothing, no new tutorials, it shows you that they areputting zero effort into Stager or modeler at this point.  It's really sad and disappointing.    BTW, you'll see a lot of silly solutions like exporting to a .psd file.  Imagine exporting a 30 second video with 900 psd file and removing the background manually.  No Adobe this is beyond silly as a solution.  We are paying good money for these programs, please do put a little more time and effort into Stager and Modeler.

Can someone tell me why a completely transparent PNG is seen by Stager with a white background?Thank you!

Hi everyone !How many of you out there use Adobe 3D Modeler ?I found the corresponding Adobe commitity  and realize that thisforum really has little activity on it, just curious.

I everyone, when export obj from Stager, it lost all the materials, it import only the colours...why it happen??

I can't copy and paste the same png file twice onto the same 3D object...does anyone have a solution? 

Hello,Last week, 2 of my machines that do rendering were working fine.Today, when I open a project and try to render, the software acts like it's starting to render, but then just sits and does nothing. If I try to cancel the render, it shows cancelled, and I can click different things in the application, but none of them actually do anything, including close/exit. The application has to be forced closed.I have tried starting a new image from scratch, and rendering just a simple sphere, but this also causes the freeze.I have tried rendering with GPU as well as CPU which make no difference.I have tried saving the render locally, as well as to a file server.I have tried rolling back to a slightly older version of Stager with no luck.I started a chat with Adobe for support, and I was told to clear my temp files before the support person simply left the chat. Delightful customer service (sarcasm).For machine specs: 1 brand new HP zBook Workstation with i7-13850HX, 32 gigs of RAM, RTX

Hi everyone,Are there any one who work with 3D stager with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 GPU on windows 11?I am planning to buy a windows computer with this video card and I am looking for information on whether it is compatible with 3D stager, ?

Goodmorning everyone!If it can be useful, I confirm that the stager render, with the imported textures applied, is useless! I enclose example, same texture used in size and stager with the same model, first imported in ai format then in jpg format. In the screens you also see the render settings. Remembering that it is ridiculous that those who invest in an M1 MAX with 64gb do not have the possibility to use GPUs. I'll switch to blender!

Good day,I want to achieve an illuminated printed signage panel (for back-lit applications in commercial graphics). MY PROCESSI've been able to get close to it by doing the following:Create / Import Object > Place Image on Material as a Decal > Scroll down to "Emission" section of Material panel, and I'm able to choose an image (in this case, I'm chosing the exact same image used for the decal). See figure 1, 2 below.MY RESULTWhat happens, is the Emision image appears to change in size, sometimes stretching horizontally, versus aligning directly over the decal (figure 3 below). My work-around has been to use Photoshop to stretch the image horizontally and vertically or make the image document have a larger canvas in order to fine-tune the alignment and properly simulate the visualization project. I have to save a separate emission image to succeed in the task.MY WORKFLOWIt's important for me to be able to drop in files with as little fine tuning as possible, when it comes to

Hey community, I have an image I need to render for a client delivery by tomorrow.  I rendered the first one mistakenly at the medium quality setting.  It rendered fast, but the quality was poor.  I re-rendered at high, which took much longer, but the quality was the same!  I went for broke and rendered at "ultra", and yet again, the image was the same size and dpi.  They're all the same!  What's up with this??  Worst of all, I have to pay $49 a month for this?!  I starting to give up on Adobe.  This is simply poor software.  Seriously poor. The "Ultra" version has small (yet noticeable) specks in the image.  I can't show this to a client, it's unusable.   Is there a way to up the resolution besides using the drop down settings?  Dimensions offered that, at least...I've included images. If anyone knows how to improve the imagery, I would appreciate any tips.

Hey i have RTX 3060 ti and no option to turn on GPU rendering in adobe substance stager? I tried everything Any help on this?  

My Stager viewport is completely black and does nothing. However, if I disable my nvidia 3060 Ti card it works without any issues. So I was wondering if maybe my card is not supported with Stager?

Hi all,I'm new to use substance tools  and have some queries - I srtarted trial and I stucked with some blockers and need your help to find-out the solution.So could you please help me at Below queries-1.

Hi, I am looking for a 3d Jacket builder for one of my client: ClothooCan someone help? 

Hello everyone, I need your help please, I have just bought Adobe Stager and I tried to work on it but failed.The viewport is blank, I followed all the steps mentioned in those links Stager viewport is blank | Substance 3D Stager (adobe.com),Solved: Blank Viewport - Adobe Community - 12842870, yet it's still not working. Few days ago, I downloaded the trial version, but since it's not woking, I bought it hoping that it's a bug. The video Card I have is (NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060), Windows 11 Pro,I checked for NVIDIA updates, and I got this message (This device is working properly)So any clue how to solve this problem please?Thank you so much,Nada

I'm trying to add a simple decal/graphic into a 3D model in Stager but it looks like there's something wrong with the mesh mapping because the graphic doesn't show on the back of the model. The front looks ok (please see below for visual reference)   but when I spin the 3D model the graphic doesn't appear all around the model...it looks like the mesh is not wrapping around...can anyone help fix this? I added the .fbx model that was downloaded from 3D Assets. Thanks in advance!  

As the title suggests I cannot load anything. The loading pop up keeps loading forever. Goes for everything from the assets, simple plane, lights etc. I can import a custom obj, but can't see it in the viewport.  Using the latest nvidia game ready drivers, and latest Stager version.  Unusable as it is now. 

Someone else is having a lot of problems with Stager? stager is one of my main softwares for my work but everytime i update it the software is like a downgrade, I use a lot of free models of the program  and now have much less models, the images and photos looks just AWFUL when you put any image on a camera object, looking ooooover saturades like burn colors. Its just me having these problems???in the attached photo you can see the difference between the original photo and the same photo inside the software for the render

I am going to have no hair soon from pulling it out by the root, trying to get Stager to work. I am pretty upset right now, so I take a deep breathe and attempt to lay this out as calmly as possible. Please know that I have been very patient for months now (since July?) as I have tried to make this application work. this is what I have spent 4-5 hours in the last day trying to do. very simple: create a plane or thin box, add a glass material and apply a 4000 x 4000 psd decal to it, add a background and render. sounds super easy, right? hours of render later and the decal looks to be 40 dpi... - flatten the decal file and save as a png hoping that will change things. same super low resolution decal after hours of rendering.  - remove glass material and try rendering again, same issue.- resize decal to smaller and re-apply to object: same issue- create new file, add 10" x 10": box with default material and apply decal: same issue  add a different decal:
