Substance 3D Designer

I'm using the Substance edition, version 11.2.2 build 5117:I do not have the option to publish a substance graph to SBSAR format in the context menu, nor is the button for it available in the Explorer panel. I followed the documentation page on publishing SBSAR:I tried searching to see if this is an expected behaviour for Substance Edition, but I had no luck finding an answer. Thank you!

Substance Designer 13.1.0Windows 11 Prior to version 13.1.0 you could hold shift and click on an output connector to reroute it, regardless of what it was connected to. However, that no longer works when connected to an output node. Please test for yourself and/or watch the video below: ps. I don't have permission to upload video directly, so here is a WeTransfer link: https://we.tl/t-aPOVWGxwoi

Hi, I was recently testing spline nodes family in SD (which are super cool btw) and I have noticed that when I use Spline Sample Height with a grayscale node (Anisotropic Noise) to drive the height of cables along the Y axis and make them look "tangled" - Hor. Along Spline (rand. offset Y) - which is probably the most common setup - I get nice tangled  cables but, I can clearly see them intersecting with each other when the brightness of each cable is similar in value (see attached screenshots).Is there any way to fix that? Some settings I can change / tweak or is it just a side effect of the node itself and how it works? Best regards,Robert     

Hi all, I just got the latest Substance Designer (version 13. 1. 0) and I have noticed that using nodes like Non Uniform Dir. Warp Grayscale  results in having very visible "banding" artifacts in the Heightmap, Normal Map and AO. My document is set to 16 bit, all the nodes are 16 bit and document resolution is 2048x2048. From what I remember my previous version of SD (which was like a year old) didn't have that issue. Right now the only way to avoid those artifacts is to use Blur HQ node which is not always helpfull as it "softens" the look. See pictures below. Am I missing something? Best regards,Robert Wilinski  

I am working in Substance Designer 3D 13.1.0 on my Macbook Pro m1 Max and I noticed very slow perfomance of NEON engine on some nodes, such as Shape Extrude, Voronoi and others. OpenGL works more fast now, but potential of NEON is hugeI hope that it will be fix over time

Hi Everyone, Please have a look at the attached image. I need to create the fabric thread pattern and color as it is like that, I don't have a clear idea to make the colour of the fabric threads some threads looks darker green, light green and others looks close to white. Please share the knowledge how to achieve that in substance designer. Regards,vasanth

Hello community! Question: Do we have any way to export custom shortcuts? Personally I have a lot of shortcut for substance's nodes and my custom nodes but I didn't find a way to transfer them to another computer. There is no button for exporting shortcut as far as I know. Just a thought: maybe we can bind shortcut setting into Project Files so every shortcut and custom node will  follow this project. Merry christmas,Hang

I am having issues getting the add-on for Blender to be enabled, I install the zip file Adobe_Substance_3D_for_Blender-1.0.2+default-176-any-multi  and it appears in the add-on, but when I try to enable it it gives me this error. I have restarted the blender a few times after removing the add-on and trying to reinstall it.  Blender 4.0Windows 10

There's an option in substance painter that is only applicable to brushes where it does random seed on every stroke or stamp. I was wondering if this is also possible for tiling? 

Hi, I'm new to Substance Designer. In my 3D model, there are four objects, each with a designated material. After exporting as FBX and importing into Substance Designer, the materials of the model itself do not appear in the material section of the 3D view. I would like to ask if anyone knows where the issue might be. Thank you! Under normal circumstances, it should be as shown in the YouTube video linked below, where the materials of the model are successfully loaded into the material section of the 3D view: https://youtu.be/oAW5FQl7j2A?si=TFXnRIhxKxD28giL&t=226

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.

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
