Substance 3D Designer

Upon first launch, I encountered the dialog box shown below. The issue was resolved by logging out of the Creative Cloud Desktop app, then back in. Hurray!   But, clicking the link in the dialog box ("Contact Customer Support") takes me to a 404 page on adobe.com.              

I have a sbs that uses lots  of functions and substance graphs   from many other  sbs files that themselves  having lots of crosslinks and heavy big  bitmaps to load forever .How can I collect all the functions and graphs in my current sbs file?   Only ones my current sbs  is actually using ?  Not a huge archive of  all sbs files  but  only functions  and graphs that are actually in use?

Hi, I have a question about Substance Designer. I've been using it occasionally for some time now, and every time I create a texture, I run into the same issue.For example, when I use a Tile Sampler for the height map (grayscale), I also have to use another Tile Sampler for the color map, with the exact matching numbers for each individual tile so that both align well. So whenever I adjust the numbers to experiment with the look, I also have to manually apply the changes to the corresponding color nodes. I'm wondering if there's a way for any changes I make to automatically reflect in both nodes (like the Tile Sampler and the Color Tile Sampler). Here's another example: I downloaded a material file from somewhere (likely from the Substance Designer homepage), and when there are puckering, there are also stitches that should match exactly with the number of puckers. However, I always have to adjust both of them separately for alignment.   Is there a way to

If you have a team how are you handleing exporting from designer when people have different locations on the pc? but the export_location/ is all the same?I dont want only 1 person to be able to export.ieperson 1Z:/workstuff/mycoollocation/export_location/person 2Y:/myPc/im_an_artist_i_dont_carewhereitgoes/export_location/person 3C:/export_location/I tryed using  aliases to affect export location but could get it to find the folder from herehttps://helpx.adobe.com/substance-3d-designer/interface/preferences-window/project-settings.html#section8

Hi, we had a couple of artists who upgraded to Designer 13.1.2 thinking it would be a small update but it actually breaks compatibility with the current version of SAT used in our pipeline because sbs files created with 13.1.2 aren't compatible with SAT versions lower than 13.1.2. In the future is it possible to keep those types of breaking changes to minor or major version updates (such as with semantic versioning --https://semver.org/)? When a patch version update can bring down an entire pipeline it's not ideal for us.

Hello!I scanned the object, created the mesh in RealityCapture, unwrapped it and texturized. In RealityCapture my object looks great! I exported the model, opened in Substance 3D Designer and got fully black model. When I opened Substance baker settings it showed “UV set = -1”Why is that happening and how can I fix it?

Hello All, I am new to 3D photography, although I do have some experience in photography, so understand some of the basics of taking a decent photograph. My issue is, no matter how many pictures I take, I cannot get Substance to align them correctly. Hence Substance rejects the majority of my photographs and produces rather feeble meshes. I have attached my photographs below I know there isn't enough - I haven't uploaded all of them. But this is the quality I have created. It does create a mesh, but not a very good one.  Any advice?? Thanks  

Hello. For whatever reason, whenever I try to drag a single node from this Material Height Blend, it drags all the nodes at the same time. How do I disable this?

Can while loop node  be usedd to do something like slope blur or  doing random iterations  offset  like in fxnode?    Or it's only for pixel value  calculation itself?   For example I am trying to  to do small image shift  in X/U direction  with max blending . Could it be achived  with loop node and more than 32 steps   ot it's incappable to do such thing  by its nature? ps. Just asked ChatGPT same  question .  In one reply it says I should use  iterations in FXmap node  instead  for the task  , other time it says while loop still can do it but then tells something meaningless with nonexisting  nodes and options. I am officially lost now.    If while loop can do it could sombody show an example please . I think FX map would do it too slow.

Hi, I am not able to modify a graph at all because the package is read-only. I can't find any reliable information telling me how to unlock it. Can anyone be so kind and help me ?

How would one go about setting up nodes to calculate the inverse of sin, cos, tan? I need to draw triangles where I will only know two sides and their shared angle, and I'm using the Law of Sines to calculate the third side.

I don’t want to go too far off-subject in a non-Painter forum, but this news is a biggie for us: we’ve just launched a major new release of Substance 3D Painter, including a bunch of new features! Head over to our post on the Painter forum to learn more.

They way Zbrush adds polypaint/vertex colors to OBJs via OBJ comments is non-standard but is intended to work in SD. However if you want to replicate this in OBJs that are exported from another DCC and be able to bake the vertex colors, SDs OBJ Pareser will only parse the comment data if each #MRGB line is terminated by a windows style (CRLF) newline. This seems like a bug since this is an invisible difference to any normal user. In the image below are 2 OBJs containing a cube with the same vertex data. However only the OBJ on the left will bake as intended. 

HiI'm wondering if it's possible to use one graphics card in the computer and another external e-gpu to render a scene in Substance 3D Designer/IRay?In the Substance 3D Designer/IRay settings it looks like this is possible?

Hi! I'll try to write it as simple as I can: how can I create a node, that would take a number as an input, and based on that, give me shuffled outputs? I know the basics of how nodes work and how to add outputs and hide them, but...I'm trying to create a "randomizer" to my shape indices. I tried to create a pixel processor 1 x 16(maximum number of shapes), randomize it from 0 to input, but I can't wrap my head around how can I tell processor to look at each pixel and not pick a number that already in a row. I hope that anyone gets what I'm trying to say, thanks in advance!

I have Graph A which is 2K, and Graph B which is 4K. I'm overlaying B over A such that the result should be 4K. What I want to accomplish is that A will tile 2x2 (or 4x4, etc.) to match the resolution of B.I could include a number of tile generators for each output of A and expose the X and Y counts to the user, but what I really hope to accomplish is for A to automatically tile to match the resolution of B. Is there a mechanism for this? .

Not sure if this is a bug or a missing feature. I have a packed psd file ( actually I have hundreds of them ). RGBA are all used for different channels. But when I link it in Designer and try to separate the channels .. I get no Alpha channel .. I can separate RGB but A is always white. There's a similar issue in Painter when using theGreyscale Conversion Generator .. it only reads RG and B and ignores the A.

I have a complex Tile Sampler pattern with four inputs. The tiles are overlapping and have soft edges. Now I need to generate a color map with distinct color for each of the four. Is there a clever technique to extract pattern input instances from a Tile Sampler output similar to the result of a Shape Splatter to Mask?I thought of trying to re-creatde the texture using Shape Splatter, but it lacks a Rotation Map input.

hey Is it possible to use the resource: republish .sbsar from Substance Designer in Unreal Engine 5?Do you have any specific configuration? thank you very much
