Substance 3D Painter

I updated my version of Painter. I believe it's 11.0 (has a picture of a dragon's head when you open it).  I'm using Windows 10. The option to Export to stager is no longer there in the File menu.   I though about uninstalling Painter, then reinstall Painter.  I'm hoping there won't be an issue with the reinstall, but thought I would post my issue first. 

Hey everyone, i’m having what seems to be normal map artifacts when baking in Substance Painter after exporting from Blender. When I export with Shade Smooth, I get these strange edge artifacts, but when I export with Shade Flat, everything works fine.I’ve tried recalculating normals and applying transformations, but the problem persists when exporting with Shade Smooth.I tried pinching the edges but it just creates more and more artifacts.Substance Painter bake settings seem fine, but the artifacts only appear with Shade Smooth. It's like it's creating edges that aren't in my low poly topology. Any advice on how to fix the issue with Shade Smooth while keeping the correct normal map in Substance Painter ? 

SPP 11.0.1 Build 4315Windows 11 26100.3775 Setting up a Paint Layer with pass through blend modes on each map type and attempting to use the clone tool to paint an area returns an incorrect normal map color - whereas I should expect the normal to be consistent with the surrounding area. All other maps operate as expected. I've tried:- changing the Normal settings, from Combine to Replace- changing the color profile of the source Normal map from data to DX, OpenGL- using a levels with an invert on the individual RGB channels to regain the correct color.- using an anchor point link of the layer to paint onto instead. None of those worked.In the image added, the area that is the source and destination colors don't match.   

  The two $24.99 subscriptions from Adobe and Steam are different, right? I want to make sure it's not a typo or anything before I sign up the one from Steam because I have no use for S. Sampler. Steam subscription have any limitations for S. Painter and Modeler?

Hello. When I try to export textures with matfx oil paint effect applied, result is not same between exported texture and the one inside Substance. If I don't use matfx oil paint, then it's all good. Below shared two image before and after export. Any help would be appreciated.    

Hi Substance Community! I am a footwear designer who is looking to create a complex knit pattern for a shoe. I want to use different knits that all run together like a seamless pattern. What would be the best way to go about this?  Hope this is enough information.  Thanks!

I have a very high-res mesh from Zbrush. When importing into SP, I got the error:Mesh normals are invalid (some values are null) and will be recomputed.When I reopen the saved scene, SP will crash.I checked in Zbrush; I checked in Maya; I checked in Meshlab. I couldn't find any errors. in my mesh. As a hack I re-exported the mesh again after SP recalculated the normals. This worked- I can reopen the saved scene.However it did something to the mesh. It looks like a UV-mistake; although the UVs are the same.. What is going on here? Please help.... 

Hi, I'm an indie animator/director new to Substance 3D Painter. The new stylized filter is great, but it doesn't have any brush stroke direction control except for the 'make it random' and 'follow mesh' option. I'm actually really surprised the filter doesn't have a Flow map input, it just makes more sense than the default 'generated by random noise' direction. I'm assuming I might be missing something, or having a flow map defeats the purpose of a filter in the first place. Is there any way to manually input brush stroke directions with stylized brush strokes? any workaround would be fine, even if its manually painting and not using the filter.

I'm trying to figure out the best way to cleanly paint from one UV island in a Texture Set to the next UV island in that Texture Set. I found the method below in one Adobe Substance 3D Painter tutorial but it is a little complicated for being a practical workflow:Mask with Color Selection from baked ID Mesh Map:1. Load object2. Select Mesh Map Baking mode3. Select "ID" mesh map type to bake4. Set color source to Mesh ID / Polygroup for the ID mesh map properties5. Bake mesh maps6. Select paint layer7. Add Mask with Color Selection8. Choose color selection mask layer9. Click pick color button10. Click on object geometry color in 3D viewport11. Select paint layer12. Paint13. Add new layer14. Repeat steps 6-13 for each new piece of geometryIn another Adobe Substance 3D Painter tutorial, I realized that this shorter workflow could be used with Geometry Masking of each Layer's paint:Layer Geometry Masking:1. Load object2. Select/Add paint layer3. Name it to the mesh part4. Select the layer'

Hello,I'm developing a custom plugin for Substance 3D Painter version 11.0.1 using the Python API on Windows 11.Using add_plugins_toolbar_widget(), I successfully added a QPushButton to the plugin toolbar. However, I’m having trouble matching the button’s size to the default plugin toolbar icon buttons (such as the resources-updater icon).I tried using setFixedSize() to manually set the size, but it doesn’t perfectly match the default icons.Here is a simplified version of my code: import substance_painter from PySide6 import QtWidgets # Global variable sample = None class Button: def __init__(self): self.initialization() def initialization(self): self.init_widget_button() self.show_ui() def init_widget_button(self): self.button = QtWidgets.QPushButton() self.button.setFixedSize(32, 32) def show_ui(self): substance_painter.ui.add_plugins_toolbar_widget(self.button) def cleanup(self): if self.

Hello,  I feel like I'm missing something basic. I'm drawing a path on a super simple straight surface, and instead of being a straight path, it's bending all over the place. I tried toggling corner/smooth, which does *something*, but certainly doesn't make the path straight:What is happening? How do I create a straight path?  Substance 3D Painter, version 10.1.2Build 4105 - 5ac1e5465eedb521dd6c13c1a61a8eca1ecc27d0

In the "Export textures" window there is a checkbox "Export USD asset".Is it possible to enable this functionality in an export config when exporting textures using Python?

I recently received a student redemption code to access Adobe Substance Painter. However, when I try to redeem it on the official website, I encounter an error message that prevents me from completing the activation.Could you please assist me in resolving this issue? I would greatly appreciate your guidance or a solution so I can access the software as intended.

Hi! Using a high end pc, 128 gb ram, 9950x3d , rtx rog astral 5090. x870E hero motherboard. 9100 samung harddrive.I opened my project on this new machine. Its 27 udims, 4k resolution etc.Painter crashes when i push it too hard - which means = painting a lot at the same time. changing udim, painting across uv shells. This doesnt happen on my A6000 build with 256 gb ram. and it got a worse cpu.Its slower on A6000 build. but Painter always gets a chance. so when it freezes painter still manage to survive.On 5090 build. its like everything is very fast. everything loads fast. everything is on steorids. but it doesnt survive when program freezes. then it just kills nvidia driver and opengl.have added tdr values. also tried a lot in nvidia control panel. Also tried to force optix but it killed all my masks.Is there anything I can do to prevent this? any ideas? this is  a 10k dollar build

When we save our substance file to the Qnap NAS it corrupts the files and we can't open it.  If we save it locally and copy it over it works fine.  Using Latest macos, latest substance, M4 Mac mini.  

My issue is very simple, but the solution seems to be difficult to figure out. When I load in a mesh and try to apply a material to it, it doesn't display on the mesh. It remains as the default grey. Even when I load in the sample files like Mat or the sample sphere, which are already unwrapped. It's absolutely not a UV issue. When I load in a low poly mesh that I've created (perfectly unwrapped) and bake the high poly mesh on it the maps bake, but they do not display on the mesh in the viewport (not on the 3D mesh or the UV view). In the maps panel it shows that the low poly has the details of the high poly (ID, Normal, etc..), but they do not display.  I've looked everywhere for a solution and can't seem to find anything on this issue. I appreciate any help. Thank you. Chris
