Substance 3D Painter

Hello Allegorithmic Team,I hope you’re all doing well!I’d like to propose an enhancement for the user interface of Substance Painter, specifically regarding the Asset Shelf. Currently, accessing the shelves (Project, Starter Assets, Your Assets) requires navigating through a dropdown menu in the top left corner. As many artists frequently use these shelves, the extra click can be cumbersome.I suggest implementing dedicated icons or tabs for these shelves. This change would allow for quicker access to our customized materials, brushes, masks, maps, and smart shaders, significantly improving our workflow.Thank you for considering this suggestion. I appreciate your attention to this matter!

Hello, maybe somebody could help shed some light for me on this issue I've encountered with export exported images from substance painter. Could also be a question for Apple support too.  When I export images from Substance, I can right click on the BaseColor outputed image and click "Get Info" and I can read the following: Dimensions: 4096 x 4096 Color space: RGBAlpha Channel: No But when I go into preview and just re-export them I more information and can read:  Dimensions: 4096 x 4096 Color space: RGBColor profile: sRGB IEC61966-2.1Alpha Channel: No The key difference is the "Color profile: sRGB IEC61966-2.1".  Is there a way I can have this embedded upon export from substance painter? 

Hello everyone!Hopefully someone can help me out here in regards to color spaces, using the eye dropper, and hex codes...So, here's the situation... Right now, I'm using color space ACES - Raw, color picker and eye dropper are also set to ACES - RawI have this color palette at https://www.color-hex.com/color-palette/1061900Let's say I pick the purple color, which on that palet is 7851A9..if I use the eye dropper to pick the color, it appears brighter on the color picker, and even brighter when looking at it in the texture properties but has the correct hex code.  But, if I typed in the  hex code, it appears darker in the color picker, but appears correct in the texture properties..if I switched to ACES - sRGB, same thing happens, except that if I type in the hex code this time, it appears correctly...  I don't know if this is all buggy, or what...and I know this all sounds strange.I'm curious as to WHAT I'm doing wrong, and what color space I should be usi

hey so i textured different parts of a diorama in substance painter - meaning each part has a different substance painter file, but i wanna know how i can open them up into 1 single file where everythings textured and into place

In Painter 11.0.1 I'm experiencing a bug where the UI is updating incorrectly. If you have a scene with multiple shader instances in it and have a textureset active using a shader instance that is not the first one in the combobox there is a problem. If you switch to a debug shader in the viewport (like "Normals"), the Shader Instance widget will go blank, showing that no shader from the scene is currently used on the textureset.  When you set the debug mode back to "Material" the expected behavior is that it returns to the original Shader Instance that is assigned to the current textureset.  However what actually happens is that the widget updates to just show the first shader instance in the combobox list.  It doesn't actually break shader instance assignment, but the UI does not match what is actually assigned to the textureset. This is causing some serious problems for us as we have a tool that watches the contents of this widget to update our custom U

Hi all, i want to set up a project for my design students (higher ed) where they design a fantasy globe, using Adobe Illustrator for assets to appear on the globe, Substance 3D Painter to place multiple assets on a globe's surface. So far so good. But how can i render out the globes surface as an equirectangular map? I'd need it to convert that into so called globe gores (using NASA's freeware g.projector). I am looking for a detailed tutorial on how to import/link Illustrator assets to Painter 3D and how to export the globe's surface as a equirectangular map. Any help appreciated. And of course i'll share my workflow with you. Thank you in advance.Michael   

I've tried signing in and outI've tried clearing SLCacheI've tried running the command they suggest on their websiteI've tried just booting the program without being signed in, and then signing into the programsI've tried making a new account, clearing the credentials on my computer then installing from the new account with a new sub subscriptionAny help would be great, I really need these programs for my mentorship, I am desperate here.

Hello.I want to add screw normal decals to my planks but as you can see in the screenshot, it uses the plank's material. How can I make it metal?

Hello there, I am still using the legacy version 2019.3.1 of Substance Painter. I had a RTX 2070 Super GPU and I changed the keys for TdrDelay and TdrDdiDelay and did not get the error message for a long time. But suddenly it was there again and I changed it again but the error message stays.Now I have a new GPU RTX 5060 ti 16 gb and the same error is showing up although the settings in TdrDelay and TdrDdiDelay are set to 60.So it can't be the GPU. Substance worked despite of the error message but today it crashed. So now I do not know how to get rid of this error.Thx for any help:)

I've completely uninstalled everything Adobe on my computer and reinstalledI've tried signing in and outI've tried clearing SLCacheI've tried running the command that removes all of the crenditials and restartedI've tried just booting the program without being signed in, and then signing into the program  I need this program for my mentorship, please I need help.

Hi, there's this issue I'm having and it's driving me insane.  When I bake the details of a high poly mesh onto my low poly one, most of the options (Normal, Curvature work just fine, all of the details get baked into every UDIM tile that's there. But, when I try to bake a height map, it just doesn't do that at all and it only tries to bake the details on with two specific tiles for some reason. I'm using the new automatic cage feature to bake it, but the height baking only seems to not act up when I use the "distance-based" option which I absolutely dont want to use because then I would have to deal with those stupid artifacts that the only known solution to fixing is to manually draw over them. please please PLEASE give me an answer to what's causing this, this is driving me mad

Hello! I'm experienced with Maya and other 3d programs but am fairly new to using Substance. I'm encountering an issue I can't seem to find any documentation on: when I import certain meshes into Painter, it tells me:"Mesh normals are invalid (some values are null) and will be recomputed"...and then re-calculates the normals itself. My mesh has a lot of custom hard / smoothed edges, and when I bring it into Substance it basically softens all the edges, leaving it looking pretty gross. The mesh looks correct in both Maya and Unity, as well as in Blender.  Here are some things I've tried, unsuccessfully, to fix this: unlocking the normals in Maya, averaging them, setting them to face, etc. and then re-doing all my custom hard edges and re-exporting to Substanceexporting as an obj and then re-importing into a fresh Maya scene, and then re-exporting to Substancethe classic "cube trick" (combine the mesh with a cube, delete the cube faces) resetting fbx export settings a

I cant seem to find an option to reorder the layers or move existing layers to group etc.  Yes we can use insert fill or insert_functions but what if the layers are already there or I want to move those to a group. critical for batch operations or cleanup of files.  

Just as the title says: the blending mode of a layer appears on another monitor on Windows 10 and Windows 11. Its been years since this bug was reported and it was never fixed.

I can't download or use materials from the comunity... i do not know why!

  I tried all that I can think of🥲 But when I bake in substance paint, I keep getting this weird missing parts on AO and Thickness..I checked the UV, normal direction, settings, but can’t figure it outCould somebody please help me with this?? I’m desperate to fix this.. 

Okay, so I'm doing a project for school. My model has a rigging system. When I try to export an FBX file from Maya, I get these two errors. What do I have to do to fix this? I tried going to Edit > Keys > Bake Simulation, but nothing I do is working. Thank you for your help. 🙂

I use Substance Painter and at the moment I can't use it because it can't connect to the adobe server.Can someone help me with this issue?Thanx

Please give a complete answer in a short time.Will this iray problem be solved in 50 series cards or should I replace this card with 40 series.. and sell this card at a loss?

Iray stuck on 'warm-up' with RTX 5090 – only works with CPU enabledeugene_lukasHi,I recently upgraded to a new ASUS RTX 5090, and I’m experiencing an issue with Iray in the latest version of Substance Painter.All system and GPU drivers are fully up to date

I know that people have been clamoring for a SP<->Photoshop feature and I was stoked to see the option in the export settings. It worked great sending the files. Now is there a way to link them so that changes made in Photoshop will be brought back in? For all the people dismissing Photoshop as a valid hand paint program I haven't seen anyone talking about the fact his feature exists. Is it because we're not quite there yet? I'd happily make a YT video to help out the community if someone could help me solve this puzzle

Well, the title is pretty self explanatory. In the Substance 3D student license website, I put my e-mail to proceed in the verification process, but no e-mail arrives. I already tried with my Adobe account e-mail, with my educational e-mail, with another personal e-mail but no luck in any of this attempts. And if I try to put the same e-mail adress again, then a message shows up "UniqueID already exists".
