Substance 3D Designer

Hi, I have Substance 3D Painter 2023 on steam and I'm wondering if its compatible with Substance 3D Designer 2024?Will I run into issues using materials created in Designer 2024 in Painter 2023?I don't want to pay €200 to find out the hard way and there doesn't seem to be a way to purchase Substance 3D Designer 2023 any more. Thanks!

How can i change the order of input nodes so they are more organized in substance painter? 

We spend > $30K on licenses annually. Adobe is a 230 BIllion dollar company. Support is unable to answer simple questions. Agents keep forwarding to other agents. Calls get hung up after 15 minutes on hold. Can someone from Adobe please reach out. Thanks.  

Hi,I've likely missed something in the documentation or settings but hopefully someone can provide a solution. I have several graphs with dependencies between them. (Currently using only .sbs files to avoid .sbsar limitations.) If I have dependencies between graphs from different .sbs sources, they don't automatically update and propagate changes unless I reload the entire .sbs that has dependencies in it. Or restart substance designer completely.How can I force an update without going through a complete reload or restart?  Thanks 

Hello everyone,How can I easily replicate the VectorCurves node from blender in substance?I basically want to obtain an easy parameter for changing the shape of a GradientRadial node.So far I only found with other shapes and masks. Thank you

Hi guys!Im pretty new in SDTrying to make matcap shader in order to use it later in TouchDesigner or NotchVFXWas asking in FB group and tried to ask GPT for help No luck ((Is it possible at all? Can some one help me with it?Looks like it should be something simple to do but unfortunately cant find any tutorial or info about itThank you

I make a texture generator with Designer, the generator work correctly< but when I publish SBSAR file, The SBSAR file workS Correct in Painter but it dose not works correctly in Designer.I try Everything:Test the graph in another systemRemake the graph from scratchUpdate my Designer versionBut it didn't work.Is it related to SBSAR setting??I attach four pics to understand what is my problem

heyHow can I make the : node Edge Select grow only downwards towards the object's height axis?thank you very much

Hi! Sorry if this is something really simple but I really want to understand this. I made a texture and it looks great on the rounded cylinder(taken from the scene) but when i switch to the sphere (also taken from the scene), It stretches out and a lot. I tried to switch resolution but it did nothing. Nothing has changed. I'll provide 2 pictures below. What should I do? I need it to work exactly on the sphere. Thank you 

Hopefully I can explain this well enough. I have two Tile Sampler nodes, I have exposed "Rotation Random" on one and "Colour Random" on the other. I would like to set it up so when I change the rotation random in the exposed parameters, the colour random changes for the second Tile Sampler.  For example, when rotation random is set to 0.01 I want the colour random of the second Tile Sampler to be 0.3... when Rotation is 0.02 I want colour to be 0.5... Rotation 0.03, colour 0.7 etc. etc.  Is this possible? And if so, how do I do it?  Thanks!  

Hello, I am attending university and went through the process of getting verified for my license. I got an email back with a code and was told I have succesfully redeemed it. Yet the substance apps are not available to me. I'm now getting the message that the code is already redeemed. I have signed out and back in, restarted my pc, tried everything I could think of. Contacting support seems to be made intentionally difficult as I'm just getting sent around from one useless page to the other. Any help? I need to be able to use the software.

In Substance Designer, I want to convert a 16-bit node output to 8-bit using the 'Levels' node and at the same time, I want to create a switch that would allow this conversion quickly. I created a custom function as shown in the picture, but unfortunately, the switch does not work, as if it doesn't take the output from the Get Boolean node at all.

Heyhey, Substance community! I am fairly new to Substance Designer and I'm trying to create a mask where spots/dots follow a somwhat swirly path - here's a couple pictures so it's easier to understand what I'm looking for:  It's the iridescent surface of a rose chafer's wing under a microscope. What I'm referring to here is the smaller, mostly green spots arranged in swirly paths in between the larger, brown notches. In the first couple pictures it looks like those rows/paths are more or less solid and not particularly broken up, and you can see the flow of those paths particularly well. In the third picture it's a bit more evident that those paths are broken up and consist of smaller dots, with some space between them, while in the last picture (which is actually a different beetle) you can mainly see the spots.  Now I'd like to ask... how would you go about creating this type of texture/mask? For the main paths/rows, I think I got a good base going: &nbs

Hello everyone!I have a somewhat annoying issue, let me explain: I created a Smart Material in Substance Designer and I'm trying to apply it to a flat surface in Substance Painter... But I'm getting this "aliasing" effect on the material which doesn't appear in Substance Designer! I noticed that it's present on the base color and the normal map.Does anyone know where this might be coming from?Thanks in advance !

Hi,I made simple filter graph, grayscale input set to inherit bit depth from input. This is connected directly to an output. Both with default "input", "output" names. I've saved this graph as an .sbs and .sbsar and brought them into a new graph. I've connected a 16bit input to both, the .sbs properly inherited the bit depth while the .sbsar does not. I couldn't find any mention of this as a known limitation in the documentation and was wondering if this was a bug or did I miss something. Chat Support wasn't helpful...Thanks in advance

I often get Designer doing that temporary couple minutes freezes  when it gets grey saying  "coocking" or "renderenig cash"  while showing  only 20% of using memory  , close to zero gpu  usage and not that much of cpu stress too.    Still I hear how my pc cooling system is getting lauder .      So what may be an issue ?

Hello! Unfortunately, I've run into a bit of a problem. I wanted to install Substance Designer on a new PC, but it would seem I do not have my license file(s) (for either Designer & Painter). I bought the perpetual license back in the day, and I thought I downloaded the license files, but I appear to have downloaded the install files instead...  Is there any way I can retrieve my license files, so I can install Substance Designer (and Painter) on my new PC?  Thanks(!),Bram  PS using the link mentioned on this web page to reach out to the Adobe Help Center was a dead end (https://substance3d.adobe.com/faq-end-of-life-accounts/) 😞 

In Substance Painter : If you use Filters like "Warp" you can get an empty "Image Input" Parameter where you can drag and drop Textures or use Anchor Points. I Want to make my own Filter in Substance Designer but I cant find the right way to use Anchor Points. What do I need to set up to get an empty image input field like in the picture?

Hello, I just installed Mrs Eaves from Adobe fonts, It shows up everywhere (eg Photoshop, MS Powerpoint) but not as an option in the text node in Substance Designer. I am running latest version of Adobe Substance 3D Designer (CC version, updated) on Windows 10.  Any thoughts? Thank you
