Substance 3D Painter

When Baking textures, this happens with the Ambient Occlusion

Hi!So as stated above I've got a promotional code for SP from FAB, redeem it, and everything works smooth until i was denied acess to software and later I received a letter from adobe whith accusations of "suspitions of fraudulent activity on my account". Adobe employee @Cyril Dellenbach was actively monitoring this, but there were no communication with them since Feb 3.It's been 15 days and issue is still not resolved.That is not what I expect from a customer service for years of creative cloud subscription. I really hope @Cyril Dellenbach or another tech support will contact me and restore my acess to Substance Painter license.  

Hi Folks,I installed Substance Painter on my computer new, and moved the window to my second screen, which is a Huion Drawing screen. After I closed the application and reopened it, it gets a white screen and freezes. I'm not able to open Sub. Painter anymore.Can someone help me or give me a tip how to fix this?!ThnxBenc 

I have recently been trying to bake from hipoly to lowpoly. However, I have begun to run into the error: "[BakingProcess] Can't create a resource from the baker result: Failed to write temporary image at /private/var/folders/52/s31hz9h10bs195v_pl9ytnxr0000gn/T/SubstancePainter-Tmp-GyNrde: Unknown error".This only occurs when trying to bake curvature or AO maps - when I press bake, the normal map and World space normal maps work fine, but when baking AO or curvature the baking visualisation window freezes and the progress bar does not move. when I press cancel the error pops up. other maps work fine. Previously restarting seemed to help, but now even that does not fix the issue.I am using a M1 Macbook Pro 2020, using Sequoia 15.3.1 (I recently updated as I thought this might fix the issue, and was using Sonoma before). I am using Substance Painter 10.1.2Other posts with this error discuss reverting nividia drivers (which is naturally not possible for me) or disabling GPU ray tracing (th

I do have a very fine mesh. The Vertex Color is assigned, it's cleary to see when using 3dsmax.After exporting the .fbx file and importing to Substance Painter... well, Substance Painter can't read the vertex color information. I have exported numerous other meshes with no problem. What's causing that issue? 

Hi guys.Does anybody have a reliable recipe for attaching the Visual Code debugger to a Painter Python plugin? I've tried a couple of ways, but I've had no luck so far. 

hey there!i'm trying to use 3D procedural noises (like perlin noise for example) as textures in generator like mask editor. i'm working with UDIM's and i'm haveing weird artefacts. if i'm using it as a mask where you can choose a projectin there is an option "fill (match per uv tile)" which helps solve the issue but there is no such option when you put it as texture in generator 

 I made some simple geometry in blender and exported it to substance painter to be textured but I keep having issues with baking no matter how I UV unwrap. (I've seen people saying it has to do with UV overlapping but i cant find any faces that overlap).   With further testing I found that even simple geometry such as cubes have these issues so I dont think its related to overlapping UVs.

 Hey community, Recently i was applying textures to my model in blender.. The texturing process were fully made in substance painter..The issue I am facing is that...I am getting some grunges or blackspots on the textures when it is being applied. I have never used any height maps during my texturing process It's just that when i am applying textures in blender these weird spots stick to my textures..Is there any reason and solution to this ..??Pls let me know 

Hi there,I would like you to ask about Substance 3D Painter.I couldn`t export multiple layers to PSD when I`m using Substance 3D Painter with UV Tiles (UDIMs) 　→ It woked correct using single UV tile but seems UV Tiles (UDIMs) had soome ploblems. Please let me know If you know the solution about above.I`m using  version of 10.1.0 build 3963.Thanks ,

After using UDIM to unwrap UVs in Blender and importing the model into Substance Painter, the UDIM is not applied to the model. How can this be resolved?Error message・[Scene 3D] Errors have been found while splitting meshes per UV tile:・Mesh 'RetopoFlow' has faces in out of bounds UDIM indices: [88,-33].PC Specs・OS　Windows 10 Pro 64-bit版・CPU Intel Core i7-12700KFGPU NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060・RAM 16GBAfter using UDIM to unwrap UVs in Blender and importing the model into Substance Painter, the UDIM is not applied to the model.

Having artifacts in Ambient Occlusion map, mesh has UV, but it always makes it with artifacts. Help please!   

I have been trying to bake a model in Substance but always shows a dark color and some errors over the Geometry, I'm 100% sure the model is OK as I already try to do the bake in a diferent computer and everything went ok.I already reinstall the program several times, I clean the cache files, even restore the whole computer and install the software in a clean enviroment but the problem still there.I check for updates of my graphics card manually.I saw in other post disabling Ray Tracing works but it delivers a bit different AO map than I normally get from substance and I would really like to know how to fix this.Substance works fine in this computer before. Assus TUF F15Intel core i7 13 gen16gb ramrtx 4070 8gb  Baking with errors Baking without Ray Tracing Baking in other computer with no issue as I could before in my laptop

Currently working on repainting a model from an online game.How do I change the export texture map colors to match the game's texture maps?Primarily, the normal, Ambient Occlusion, and Metallic / RoughnessGame models use 4 maps in totalAM (Diffuse), ANM (Normal), AO (Ambient Occlusion),GMM (Roughness and Metallic combined?)The only one in question that I am not able to produce a good result to match my repaint in SP is the GMM map.The Purple is the neutral (Z up lit portion)Is there a way to edit / pick different colors for the texture maps upon export?I have exported a different tank I repainted and I went through 5 or 6 different export presets trying to find one that will work or similar to the above with no luck.What would be needed to creating a similar map export option?Also Secondarily.The ANM (Normal) maps are usually an orange, green, or blue'ish purple map color pending on each part of the tank. So I would to be able to set a color with this as well. 

I can´t load any files such as textures, alphaThe program crashes and then close 

Hi there - I've just got into Substance Painter in the last few months and I have a question I hope some may be able answer. Is it possible to, and if so how can this lighting effect be created? I'm referring to the brighter glow around the top of objects. It's just on a flat diffuse texture and unrelated to any game lighting. To me it looks slightly glossy or reflective.  To be clear, this is definitely coming through on to the diffuse texture, although extra reflectivity and bump mapping are applied also as seen in the game screenshot.  I've already experimented with AO bakes, dirt and wear generators, as well as baked lighting filters. However, nothing quite creates this effect which is perfect for the game I develop for.  Many thanks in advance - I hope you can see the effect I am describing!

I am a student trying to renew my access for substance painter. I have verified my account and I did get a response saying that I am good to go for another year, but I still can't access it. when I go to creative cloud it says I have to request permission for substance painter; doesn't make sense if I should have already went through the steps of getting it, but whatever. When I click on it I keep getting a something went wrong message. I can't seem to get a hold of anybody not even an online chat with someone is there anyone out there who can help me?

Hi , I import a model and it looks fine to add material but if I bake the model, I get this wierd glitch looking pattern baked in the model.  What is happening? 

  HUGE news for the Substance 3D ecosystem: today we’re launching unmetered access to the complete Substance 3D Assets library for Adobe Substance 3D subscribers. This means that every Substance subscriber on a Collection or Texturing plan has access to the full collection of nearly 20,000 professional materials, models and lighting environments without managing points.   Moreover, this also means that Student licenses will now have access to 3D Assets.   Head over to our post about this on the Adobe blog to learn more, or go to Substance 3D Assets right now to see what you can start creating.

Hello Adobe Community, please help. Do you know why I don't have "text" in Painter? How can I fix it please? I need to write with my own font. Thanks in advance, it would be a great help.   

Hello, I hope you’re having a productive day.I have been experiencing issues during the firing process, both in my previous works and my current ones, as shown in the pictures. Since I have been facing this issue in my recent projects, I decided to refire some of my older works as a test. Surprisingly, I encountered the same problem even in those pieces, despite never having faced it before.I have tried to investigate the cause, but I couldn’t find an answer. Could you help me? Is this issue caused by me, or could it be related to the program? I have never experienced such a problem before.Please assist me, as this situation is delaying my work.

Hi I'm importing some 3d objects from Maya to Substance Painter but whenever I bake the textures, Ambient Oclussion bakes some weird artifacts. I though it was because some issue with my models, but I've just tried with a simple box with an automatic mapping and the issue remains.  Maya: Substance Painter:   I even uninstall and install again the program but the issue remains. Any help here? Thanks in advance

Hi there, I just got substance painter and I've tried importing meshes from Blender. Unwrapped, no overlapping verts, normals calculated properly, but for whatever reason I keep getting these weird artifacts.I've sent my FBX file to a discord group and no one else is having this problem. I had to post the link to the video here because for some reason it's not accepting the link in the attachments. https://streamable.com/eahj3lDoes anyone have any ideas? Thanks David
