Substance 3D Designer

HiI am looking for the usage of the channel parameter group that I see in some of the default Substance Painter materials. When I activate or deactivate them nothing seems to happen.Thank you!

Hi there, I have this question that in my opinion would be great if it works. Is it possible to use a curve as value processor input so it can be used as custom distribution instead of a linear one? What I am trying to make is a remap a linear distribution based in a custom curve. Instead of using a linear one where all the samples are equally distributed, using the curve would remap these values in the position where we want. Thank you

I have two different resolutions of meshes, but I do not want to go through the process of renaming my geo from high to low as its a bit of a pain in Zbrush to do that. So I exported lower res geo with the same name as the high res geo and want to use a "_high" suffix to match to. In painter I can customize this input to make it work but in designer this does not seem to be possible. Am i missing an option to allow this?Thanks

I'm having a weird issue where only the 3D viewport has inverted zoom. 2D and graph zooms work as usual, but 3D is inverted. Any soulution to make them all zoom the same way?

Hi, I recently updated Substance Designer to the latest version 11.3.0 and I wanted to know if there is a way to reverse the mouse scrolling: when I scroll up, it zooms in and down, it zooms out.   I know I could do it with previous versions but I can't find the setting that would allow me to do it in the lastest version. Thanks 

Bonjour tout le monde, j'aurais une question importante, je travaille avec Substance designer et Unreal Engine et je cree des Sbsar sur Designer pour les utiliser dans Unreal Engine. Jutilise actuellement des Imput Color et Imput Grayscale afin de pouvoir changer de map directement dans Unreal.Ce que jaimerais faire cest de pouvoir load mes Map D'udim sur Unreal mais je ne trouve aucun moyen de les mettre en place dans Designer.Je precise que loader des Udim(Vt) dans Unreal dans Imput Grayscale du sbsar est possible mais il ne la lit pas en tant q Udim mais en simple texture.Desoler si ce nest pas tres clair japporterais des precision, merci a vous.Hello everyone, I have an important question, I work with Substance designer and Unreal Engine and I create Sbsars on Designer for use in Unreal Engine. I currently use Imput Color and Imput Grayscale so I can change maps directly in Unre

Hey Everyone,Is there a way to change the order of the parameters and their groups in the final node in Instance Parameters? During the work on my custom node I made a lot of changes, and now I'm trying to finalize it and set logical hierarchy of the groups and parameters in the final sbsar file.Please help,

I want to show my texture in my 3d view  but didn't show Pelin noisewhy  is my base material input is not working

I often get SD  slow as hell .  Loading and rendering  substanses forever  and  wondering how I managed to create  them at all.     Could number of other sbs files previously loaded and visiable curently  in explorer panel be a reason? Also should I avoide  doing  several graphs in single sbs?  I am accustommed to versions  as copy paste  the graphs inside same  sbs . Is it a bad practice   and there is better way to save versions of same thing?

  We would like to inform you about a significant change coming to Substance 3D Designer. As indicated in the changelog of the 12.4.1 bugfix, this release of Designer will be the last one to support Substance model graphs. This decision has been made to streamline our focus on Material creation and enhance the user experience.   Our team has closely analyzed user feedback and adoption rates for the feature, and we've come to the conclusion that Designer is not the optimal platform for procedural geometry within the Substance 3D ecosystem. To fully concentrate on delivering cutting-edge features and improvements for Material artists, we have made the pragmatic decision to cease development of Substance model graphs and remove the feature from Designer entirely. This will allow us to move forward without constraints and dedicate our resources to areas that better serve our users.   We sincerely appreciate your understanding and support in this matter. Please stay tuned fo

hello the image below was made in Blender with the modifier: displace.  Is it possible to do it in Substance Designer with procedural maps?Note that the edges/corners of the box are also embossed.My goal is mainly to make these edges with relief.thanks

Let's say, using pixel procressor, I want to output the first 32x32 pixels from the input (i.e keeping the rest black, value = 0).How do I achieve that?  I first thought that using while loop one can create a "list" of position values that could be fed into sample grayscale/color but I guess it doesn't work like that. It only gives the value at position that while loop calculates in the last iteration. In the attached screenshot, my intent was to output 32 pixels diagonally (from top right corner) but it gave the value at position (32,32). How do I append the results of Sample gray? (Why do I want the first 32 pixels? For no reason, I'm taking baby steps right now. Once I connect enough dots then I'll node my way to get a specific result I want to achieve. Something that can work with general input. I'll share that node graph and tutorial with you all!)

In the attached example, I used gradient picker (super handy) to sample multiple colors from a photograph.The bright regions of the input (of Gradient Map node) got the grays and dark regions got the browns. I wanted the other way around.Since there are many pins in the gradient it's time taking to move each one. There should be a way to rotate the gradient. By rotation I mean:Moving all the gradient pins left or right such that the pins overflowing from right side goes to the left side.  Also, I'm aware that user can move multiple pins at once (that's neat 👌) and can resample from image in reverse direction to roughly get the effect required above.

Hello,I want to create a tool that I can use in substance painter and will use the position map as input.Is there a way to expose graph inputs in Designer? So I can drag my Position map in Painter into that input. Here I use the bitmap from my position map in Designer as input, but I would like to be able to use the position map in Painter in my tool.Thank you very much, Tom

Hi, I wanted to use a mutiple fonts in a single sbsar file. I tried to create it in the Substance Designer. I havn't got any satisfied way to it. Here anyone know how we can add multiple fonts in the same sbsar file? Thanks...

Is there a simple way to quickly change resource folder  like putting the resource folder in same folder sbs is saved  or something like that and change one link instead of  lots of them?For exmple  I have  a texture which is composited from render AOVs  saved as exr files  .  Now I do a slightly diffrent version  and output it to another folder.      So far  I rename this folders  to a path saved in substance file but with time I lose track of it and have no idea  which folder I have to rename to get the version I want.   Is there a simple qucik way to  to reassign new folder for all the resources ?   I used aliases before but  they not much of a help.   For axample I have  an aliase  "AOV output'   . Still have to rename   the folder  for other version  instead of  changing the links in SD to just another folder one time and s

13.0.2 build 6942 commit f2a4d8a0 Release (07/20/2023) Windows 10 Pro19045.3693

I'm stuck on this issue, this hbAO node causes 'banding' and I don't know why. I've tried so many things but haven't got a clue how to fix it

  This 13.0.0 release of Substance 3D Designer brings a lot of love to material artists, with a huge quantity of new nodes, the Substance Engine 9.0 introducing loops for the first time and with a great addition to the graph: the portal node. And in order to please more users, we introduce a brand new Home Screen and provide additionnal languages.    As mentionned in the previous version, this one is no more supporting Substance models graphs: it means that you can no more open, edit or export such graphs in Designer. You can find all the reasons why we took this decision in this post on our community forum.    Release date: June 6th, 2023 New Content This 13.0 version brings a lot of new content. You will mainly find two new collections of nodes: Spline tools and Path tools. Spline tools are a collection of nodes for generating and ajusting splines, as well as using them for mapping, scattering or warping images. Paths tools are another set of nodes to extract,

Designer won't give you warning If you are using a sbsar from higher version. It just output nothing. No error massage. I'm using 12.3.1 load this file ArtStation - Slope Blur HD | Resources (It requires 13.0).

スエード生地の作り方を解説付きで教えていただきたいです。

Hello!I watched the video "Introduction to Path Nodes in Substance Designer". There are effects shown with sequins and pearls. Can someone please point me to tutorials on how to do different types of sequins and pearls? I was so excited to see the cover photo of the video, but then there was no explanation of how to achieve those materials in the video.Many thanks in advance!
