Substance 3D Painter

Substance Painter 12.0.1 I have this issue where after baking all the maps look fine except world space normal (see first screenshot). The mesh is triangulated in Blender before export. And I have re-imported the FBX to blender to triple check this. Must be some baking bug in painter? Not having a correct world space normal is really messing up all the smart materials, not sure how to fix it. World Space Normals in Painter Blender MatCapAttached my exported FBX if you want to test it.

Hi guys, I'm having an error when baking any model in the software. It creates artifacts on the AO map that are the same in all models. I tried to find a solution for this, but I was unsuccessful. Could somebody help me?  

Hello yall,So I recently began a 3D model journey in which I would texture using photoshop. I decided to pay for Substance Painter on Steam to use a better program. [according to other creators]. However I have recently run into a issue.Any time I try to export a texture file the program will crash. Sometimes I can export a texture or two before it decides to crash. I am exporting what I consider a basic texture, 2D View png 8 bits 2048 and Dilation + transparent, I tried to make it 1024 and still crashes.My computer is not buns at least I don't think so, my specs are a Ryzen 9 5900x amd gpu 7900xtx and 64 gb of ram. I have 3tb of free space on the drive where substance is installed. If anyone knows a fix or a way to trouble shoot please let me know. It has stopped my work flow. 😓I watch my PC usage and nothing seems to spike while exporting. This just started recently and I even rolled back but nothing changes if anything it got worse

I recently purchased the newly released Substance Painter 2026 on Steam. As the latest version, I expected it to support available downloadable resources.However, I noticed that a free resource pack (materials/assets) on Steam requires Substance Painter 2025 to be installed in order to use it.This raises a couple of questions:Is there a specific reason why this pack is not compatible with the 2026 version?Are there any plans to update it for 2026 or release an equivalent pack for the new version?It seems counterintuitive that the latest version cannot access content available to a previous one, so I’d appreciate any clarification on whether this is intentional or just not updated yet.

Since the last update, everytime i export a model directly to subtance stager to take photos, the model doesnt export the roughness channel, you can see in the first photo how the model dont have any roughnes map, looks like plasticine, the second one has the same materials and the rouighness look way different, works perfectle and was exported with older version, this ruin all my workflow since the update, someone else has the same problem?? 

The 3D mesh file is in obj format. After drawing with a pen or brush, when sending it to Stager for display, it shows that the model cannot be imported. However, if you go to the project configuration, change the import settings, remove the retention of the brush positions on the mesh, and re-import the mesh, it can be imported normally again. The cost is that it will change the position of my pen path. Is this a bug?

Spoiler: Curve Shape slider does nothing related to sharpening a curve marked red on a screenshot.

Right click white circle appear on the top with wacom tablet.Why? It is 2024. But this bug is existing last 20 years. And still here!In photoshop, Illustrator. Now in the Substance Painter.You need this everytime. Right click + alt  - navigation. Right click  + ctrl - change brush radius.And everytime you have this huge white circle with right mouse click.How to get rid of this?

I’ve been learning and using substance painter for portfolio work for the last 3 years now. I’ve now gotten to the point where I can potentially sell my assets (mesh+textures) to clients. Currently I have a student license which does not allow me to sell my assets commercially. I must upgrade to a commercial license to do so. Now my question is - Will re-exporting my textures from my existing projects (that were made with a student license) in substance painter with my new commercial license allow me to sell those textures commercially or do I need to alter them to make them legal?

Hello guys 🙂 I’m hitting this error in my Substance Painter Python exporter: ValueError: For exportList item #0, the preset "resource://starter_assets/glTF PBR Metal Roughness" is undefined I am using Everything (voidtools) to try and locate it, but I can’t find that preset on disk anywhere, I am assuming it is embedded. Do you guys know where it's coming from? Any other preset from the starter-assets folder work fine. How can I access the glTF ones?  Any help would be appreciated, thanks 🙂

Hi there! I have faced an issue with locating glTF PBR Metal Roughness export preset. I want to write  plugin using it so it would be helpful to know the ResourceID of this preset. Any piece of advice will be helpful. Thanks!

In Substance 3D Painter, when painting on the mask of a fill layer, the brush always displays "No Material". This happens with all brushes, and restarting the software doesn’t fix it. What’s the problem? This didn’t occur in older versions; it only started happening after I updated to the latest version 11.1.2.

Substance Painter 11.1.3 consistently Generates Thumbnails will scroll through assets, whether its materials, smart materials, alphas, etc. I have set the icon memory budget to 2000MB. I also used Environment Variables, SUBSTANCE_PAINTER_PREVIEWS_MEMORY_BUDGET, set to 24000. When scrolling through assets Substance Painter slows down significantly, where adding a material or smart material takes an extrememly long time to apply or load.5950x RTX 3090128 GB RAM All nvme SSDs

Hi everyone!I created a simple, slightly conical circular band model in Blender (image 1). After UV unwrapping (image 2), I then exported the high- and low-poly models in FBX format.In Substance Painter, after baking, I get noticeable jagged edges on the model (image 3).For baking, I set the antialiasing to Supersampling 16x, and the output size on 4096x4096.After baking, there are jagged edges (image 3).Why does this happen and how can I fix them?Thanks so much!123 

Accidentally overwrote my SPProject and my autosave won't open giving "Failed to Open Project", I have v 11.1.3 but the original project and it's autosave were created in a previous version in end of January. Need help opening this autosaved file since it’s a work file, it weights 3.21 GB so I'm sure it's not an empty scene because that’s pretty much the same weight the original project file had, just cannot get to open it, can anyone help with it?https://we.tl/t-kklfzFDR77 wetransfer stays up for 3 days but I can update it after it expires if needed.Really need to open this file!😫
