Substance 3D Designer

Hey peeps i am struggling trying to get the shapes of these materials any and all help would be appreciated, I tried using the random 2 and random grayscale nodes to get the shapes but there just dont off set in the right way to get a lot of varience , too many verticale lines and it looks off here is a close reference and far reference of the 2 materials  

I am creating a filter for SubstancePainter.This filter applies a gradient to each stroke of paint.The strokes are broken apart with Flood Fill, and the gradient is applied with Flood Fill to Gradient, but the strokes across the UVs are separate parts.I tried a Position bake texture, but I could not get rid of the joints.Is there a better way to do this?

A new update, Designer 14.1.0, has been released today to enhance your daily use of the tool and also introduces a few additions to the Spline and Path node set.   The most noticeable node is the Scatter Splines on Splines node, which distributes splines along a parent spline, offering options similar to those of a regular scatter node.   In terms of your experience in Designer, you'll benefit from new alignment tools to maintain a clean and readable graph, the copy/paste parameters feature to carry over parameters from one node to another, the color sampler tool in the 2D view to pin a specific pixel and track its value across multiple nodes, and several improvements to the search toolbar.   Take a look at the release notes for this latest version of Designer to learn more.     

Hello, How do I go about exporting through scripting while being able to control export settings and what output nodes get exported?  sd.tools.export.exportSDGraphOutputs  This function is not adequate.  I'm unclear on how to disable certain nodes of import and export.  This function doesn't seem to help:  current_graph.setOutputNode(o, False)  How come exportSDGraphOutputs doesn't set the names of the exported textures correctly? It just labels them "{graphname}_output_0.png, {graphname}_output_1.png, etc".How do I configure exporting through a python script similar to how the "Export outputs" window lets you when you right click on a graph and select "Export outputs as bitmaps".Essentially, I'd like a one button export script that lets me specify:Filename per output textureColorspace per textureResolution per textureWhat output nodes are exportedFiletypeCheers

I'm trying to transform a shape without tiling it. I tried using a Transformation 2D node, but, the node tiles the shape.  The node has a 'Tiling Mode' field, but it is disabled  and I can't find any way of enabling it.  I tried changing different fields on the node, tried different types of inputs, even restarted Substance Designer.  So this is either a really weird bug, or I need to set something up differently. The field does not have any sort of tooltip that explains why it's disabled.  So I have no idea whats going on here.  Thanks for the help.

Hi all, I have used a win PC untill now, but now I have moved to MAC. So I am looking for the Mac version of Bitmap2Material v 3.1.x (B2M) to download.I hope, someone can help me. Thanks a lot.

Hey guys, have mercy on me. I enjoy making models and using Substance Painter, but I don't make materials/textures. I went to Free PBR and got all their texture sets, but it's a folder with a bunch of maps. I want to convert them to a material for ease (a .SBSAR file?). I have a free trial of Designer and permanent Substance Painter. Is there anyway to do this? Thanks in advance everyone! 

Hi I'm trying to texture a custom mesh but it's coming apart at the seams at the slightest amount of displacement, what am i doing wrong here? It's fully UV'd  

After the update to the latest version, the windows layout not loading properly. I tried to reset the layout and remake it again, but each time I open Designer, I'm getting the wrong layout, like in the image:And this is what I expect:

hey yall, im reading reading the documentation and is this a typo?im a bit confused, never used functions but i always thought they were more complex threfore less abstracted, can someone help me understand? 

I've recently released accumiliation of my designer knowledge in this LED Board Generator. Chk the demonstration here:YT DemonstrationFind its use in a demo scene:YT Demo SceneUse it for free:Artstation Marketplace  Thanks Dave for helping out 🙌 Happy New Year! 🎆

I'm interested in Substance 3D programs and want to know if I can create an interactive 3D model that I can send electronically to a customer to view who doesn't have 3D software.

Hi all, I have previously owned a perpetual license for Substance Painter 2020 (6.2.2) purchased from the substance website. This 2020 license was aqcuired by updating it from on the 2018 license I have transfered from the steam version.  Now I'm unable to download the perpetual license for the 2020 version since the old Allegorithmic website is done. I followed their instruction and sent on email to "allegorithmic-legacyaccount@adobe.com", but there is no response from them. I'd appraciate any help or advices. Thanks!

I am attempting to generate an ambient occlusion map from a height map using the RTAO node. However, the output in the 2D view appears completely white, with no grayscale details. In contrast, the HBAO node produces the AO map correctly. The tessellation factor is set to 40, and the height map scale is set to 5. I am using Designer 13.1.1 on Windows 11, running on a system equipped with an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D processor, 32GB of RAM, and an AMD Radeon RX 7700XT GPU. 

I want to make a material with uv shifting  in a next uv tile/span.   Can do so in Blender shader editor but would like to have same option in Designer .   Is it possible somehow ?    Whatever I try it's always first  tile 0-1  repeating in 3d view pane.  

I asume it could be  done  by reading    with "find text" option  in something like total commander ?     is there any easy quick  method?

I have an idea: is it possible to use text-to-3D technology to generate 3D product models that not only have a refined exterior but also include a reasonable internal stress structure? The generated product models should be ready to directly create mold designs, which can then be used with a 3D printer to manufacture the product molds. Can Adobe achieve this? If so, how can it be implemented? We are open to collaboration.

If I need some patches of flat gray values  in one of rgba   working as time values  .   So far I have to export as 16 bit  tiff  and convert it to 8 bit  in Photoshop   with dithering off.      Can I do same in Designer somehow ?   When I try  to export tga  from Designer directly  my flat gray areas always get some dithering  noise.

Plz refer to the short video.There's a parameter such that: If it is zero or higher → Blend Mode: AddOtherwise Subtract. Happy Holidays!Thanks

Whenever I right-click a node, and select duplicate, it is SUPPOSED to do something, right? Like duplicate the node? It doesn't do anything at all. Doesn't emit an error, just, does nothing. Like, duplicate SHOULD duplicate things, equivalent to copy/paste (which also doesn't do anything), right?I'm on OS X Sonoma 14.6.1

I feel like this may be a bug but it could be an overlooked feature or even me missing something.When Subsatnce Designer exports textures using Export Outputs, the images output will always have an alpha channel no matter what is input to the output and no matter what settings are used.I've tried setting User Data to alpha=none which does not work.I've tried using an Alpha Split node before ouput, despite only pumping in RGB Designer will still ouput an RGBA image.I've also tried setting the Components to RGB rather than RGBA, Desiger seems to completely ignore this entirely for output exports.Anything else that I am missing or is this just missing funcitonality or a bug?It's worth saying that Substance Painter can handle not exporting Alpha so it's weird that Designer can't.This is important for game development because RGB and RGBA images have different compression and cause different memory sizes.
