Substance 3D Painter

Hey, guys! I need help with substance painter 2021. Why can’t I see brush preview in viewport? It happens, when I set alpha to uniform color. Full preview cursor is enable.

Hi all, I am having a problem with my exported texture maps from painter to UE (4.26). Everything looks great in Painter (1st image), however once importing to Unreal some (but not all) textures seem to be shifted with respect to the UV maps (I used a UDIM/Tiled workflow from blender). I found an older post that recommended triangulating the mesh from Blender 2.91 (I used triangulate modifiers at the end of the stack on all objects w/ the "Keep Normals" checked on. These modifiers are applied at export of the FBX) Painter Viewport:  UE Viewport: Painter Export Settings: ...weird huh? Anyone run into this problem beofre? Since the problem doesn't exist everywhere (actually most of the texture maps/UV are aligned correctly in UE), I'm not sure the UDIM workflow is to blame here, but any clues as to what I should try are welcomed! Thanks!

Hello,I'm trying to paint 'robot feathers' onto a 2D wing plane. The feathers consist of a colour map, metalic, roughness, normal, and opacity, all square.The problem is, whenever I paint on another feather next to the first one, the square alpha map paints over the other feather and makes it invisible (see screenshot).How do people normally get around this issue? 

I'm struggling with something so basic, it should be easy, and its driving me nuts. Would really appreciate help. It has to do with substance 3d painter. Here's what's going on: Some background info: I imported a fbx file from blender into substance painter. It is a blade element for a sword. Just want to make sure I did the uv editing properly. In substance painter, the viewport displays my object in the 3d panel as white with shading. The 2d also looks perfect in terms of seams. So far so good, right? The next step is where the problem starts. After, baking, I make a new brush layer, select a shiny metal material for the paint brush, and paint the entire object with it. Unlike my previous files, this goes haywire. My object is suddenly reduced to a flat grey shape. It appears two-dimensional from all angles. No metallic texture either. I then cycle through displays with "c" and find no fix. Here's where it gets even weirder:When i export the file textures fro

Thoughts? 

I was recoloring a model and tried to export the textures and instead of getting the albedo transparancy, normal, metalic smoothness, emission. I just get Basecolor and Emissive. what do I need to do to get the albedo transparancy, normal, metalic smoothness, and emission textures?

Hello all, Can someone please help me make masks that do the same as this one in Quixel Mixer?I want to generate mask that takes into account the normal information beneath the layer, not just the normals from the baked mesh map. In Mixer they have a normal mask layer that is very easy to manipulate direction and change to:- Mesh only- Mesh & base normal map- Mesh & current layer- Mesh & underlying mix  (See attached image) I have tried figuring out how to do this in substance painter but can't seem to figure it out. Thank-you for anyone who helps me.

How do I import Substance Source material in the new Adobe Substance Painter?

Hello everyone,I am very new to Substance Painter and trying to learn following several tutorials, including the getting started video series. Today I did a fairly nice first trial with the things that I learned: https://gyazo.com/73aecbba780729b52676d205d7c4f2e0 And then I passed to my "bigger" project, which is a bed, and actually everything was working nice till I realized some faces that looked darker on a footboard made by pipes. When I checked all the maps in Substance Painter, I realized that I have some grey rectangles which is corresponding to some faces with ngons. Here's a screenshot of the normal Map that I mean and a screenshot of the object: https://gyazo.com/98a8725f4600a43fb7246f2a49911e22 As you can see, I have some grey faces on the normal map. I checked the blender file (modelled it in Blender) and there aren't double faces, nor double vertexes and face normals are all correct. Yes there are ngons on those surfaces, but there are other pretty iden

I have an object with 2 different UV maps and each map has its own material ID. When I import this object into substance, it combines both UVs instead of creating 2 texture sets. Am I misunderstanding something? Thanks in advance

Hello, I bought Painter on Steam probably around two months ago. I have only been using it for a month and left it idle for another month. Last I opened it was July 6th, today when I tried opening it again, Steam said it needs to be updated, but upon clicking the update button, it does nothing then says the application is ready to launch, which also does nothing. It doesn't launch, update, and I can't uninstall to re-install it either. I have attached the log file. Help would be much appreciated, thank you.

Is there any chance we can get a decent Forum setup going here? The way this Support Community web-page setup works is no better than just typing stuff into a browser and searching the net.

So Do i have to get a new subscription to the Adobe Platform or does my Prior subscription transfer? i don't see any of the Substance programs in  my Acct on Adobe.. 

1. realtime updates of imported texture maps in Substance Painter. When a file is altered in PS og Illustrator, it automaticly updates in Substance Painter. This would be a really really big help for my workflow 2. particle brush spawn restraints. By adding a mask to a layer whwre the particle brush is being appliedyou can control where on the mesh particles can spawn. That would be so awesome !Thanks !

Can anyone help me with this? I'm trying to find where exactly to place the Character Creator 3 presets for Substance Painter since it was taken over by Adobe. As you can see here the Adobe installation of Substance has changed the "shelf" folder into a file. Where should the Character_Creator.spexp file be placed now?

I think there's an issue with movies number 4 & 5 of Substance 3D Painter - Model preparation. Both seem to be movie #2. If movies 4 & 5 are available, maybe someone can fix the links on that page? https://substance3d.adobe.com/tutorials/courses/Substance-3D-Painter-Model-preparation/youtube-j5isGX8zwSI 

There are weird shifts in the texture and I don't know how to fix this  I tried to export it without the UV maps from blender but that didn't help. If you know how to fix this I would like to hear it :).  (The frog is for reference for what is should look like.)  

hello, I'm working on human body textures from CC3 and Daz. the problem is that I would like to work on 2 parts of the body at the same time. for example using the stamp tool from the body to remove the shoulder parting line.Thank you

Hello team I'm startinng by testing the tool, and I'm new with everything, but IM struggling to get working the single channels. Only the material channel works fine.Can you tell me what is causing this, or I need to enable something?Thanks. 

HiAre there any plan to make Live Link in Rhino? Plugin ThankTravis

Hi,I am trying to bake by mesh name but it is not working. I have name everything correctly but still it's not working.

Hi guys,if I want to use any generator it doesnt work, because die image inputs were cant be found. Any idea to solve this problem? Where can I find them and how to say Substance to load them? Substance was installed with steam if it makes a difference..  Thank you!Stefan

Hallo,ich nutze seit ich mit der Uni angefangen hab die CC Student Lizenz und wollte mir vor kurzem Substance Painter über die Creative Cloud runter laden. Ich versteh nicht, warum mir die Lizenzen zu allen 3D Applikationen fehlt, trotz meiner aktiven Lizenz?(Ich bin nach wie vor Student)Muss ich die Lizenz kündigen und neu starten oder kann das anders gelöst werden? Der Preis hat sich ja auch nicht veränder, also versteh ich nicht weshalb diese Programme nicht dabei sind.

After uninstalling and reinstalling, while opening substance it takes meer seconds after opening before it crashes. Once it crashes there is no report to fill or send out.
