Substance 3D Painter

I would like to customize Light Generator by inheriting from the official Light Generator.I would like to create my own Light Generator.What is the best way to do this?

HelloAs per title we are looking for information on the technical details on what happens if we create the textures at for example 4k and then export to 8k. Like what happens to imported textures, manually painted masks, brush strokes, baked textures, noises and so on when exporting at a higher resolution than what was used in SP, how does the upscaling, if this is even the correct term, work?Thanks in advance for any inputs.

Hello everyone, I have been a member of the Substance 3D community for a long time and share my 3D work like everyone else. I would like to know what happened and why I was banned. I use the Steam version of Substance and don't understand the reason for the ban. It happened after I posted a link to my article about a 3D asset made with Substance Painter that I sold on my sketchfab store and was used by a modder from Nexus Mods in the cyberpnk mod. It's more of a success story than something spammy. This ban led to the assumption that modders on Substance don't care and don't like to read. Here is the link to the LinkedIn article: The Growing Importance of Modding in the Gaming Industry and Digital Fashion My Discord handle is Bartholomewkoziel#3609.Substance Server ID is 179919948569640960 This is my second attempt to resolve this situation, please don't ignore my message!Thanks for your helpBart

For a "painterly" style project I am currently working on, I am manually painting the normal map in order to give a sort of Brushstrokes effect. A major difficulty with this strategy, however, is that it requires there to be only one base color with the material. This is due to the fact that if the base color and the normal map patterns do not match up, the painterly effect will no longer work properly. Is there any way I can hand paint the normal map and base color simultaneously so that these two textures might match up?Thank you!

used Substance painter for some time and it worked perfectly on my rig and now Substance painter crashes and throws Bug report, tried clean install of Substance painter and clean install of Adobe and its softwares, installed different versions of Substance and soo far only 8.1.2 and below doesn't crashes how ever 8.1.3 to 10.0.1 crashes and Substance painter can't open my old projects giving out an Error "data is too recent for this version" so this is useless, tried clean install of my graphics driver, tried upgrading my graphics driver to the newest driver.any fixes?heres the log

Hi, its crazy that this program does not have a scenegraph or outliner. Lets say you have a car and you want to paint the inside of the wheel well. I want to be able to hide the wheel and tie geo when I do that so I can see what im doing. Why on earth cant you toggle the geo off in an outliner ?

I have attached a test cube with 2 meshes, one Cube_low the other Cube_high, when using Match by Mesh Name, nothing shows up in the log and i would like to know if its just me or a blender export being weirdThanks

  There’s just enough time before the end of the month to get into the Substance 3D Community Digest for September 2024. Let’s dive in. Substance News    Meet MAT 4 has begun!    The outstanding art toy texturing contest Meet MAT is back! The goal: use Substance 3D Painter to texture MAT, our adorable little shader-ball-headed mascot, in any way you like. Submissions have just opened, and entries are accepted until October 28 – which means that you could use the 30-day free trial period for the Substance apps  to create your artwork for this content, if you were so inclined.     Importantly, this time around the contest is being run by our friends over at The Rookies, and so this is a contest for 3D rookies only – entrants must have no more than one year of professional industry experience. So if you’re a 3D beginner, or perhaps a student just learning the ropes, this is an excellent chance to showcase your work. Carpe diem, as they say (or car

Hello Community,I'm interested in buying Substance Painter 3d from the platform Steam, but I have a few questions about the licensing, maybe someone of you can help me. 1. Does the current license for Substance Painter 3d permit unrestricted use for commercial projects?2. Are there any specific restrictions or conditions for using the software for commercial context compared to private use?3. Do I need to acquire a special license to use Substance Painter 3d in a commercial environment? Thank you in advance. 

First: All pervious installations worked fine on all systems up to versions: Designer 14.0.0, Painter 10.0.1 and Sampler 4.5.1. Now I created a new package with the updated Designer 14.0.1 and Painter 10.1.0. and the installation failed with a hint to have a look at PDApp.log. In this file I can see the line:[FATAL] |  | ASU | DeploymentManager | IPCInterface |  |  | 30848 | Operation failed 8 and errorCode 190And if I search for the error code 190 I found a hint that my system requirements are not sufficient any more.Since our systems did not change, I suppose there was a chang in requirements but I have no idea which one does not work.The only thing wich could be the reason is the windows version. We use Windows 21H2 whereas in the requirements I can readthat 22H2. Could this be the reason? As already mentioned, all previous versions worked fine.Log files are attached.

Hello,I was removed from the Substance Painter Discord community for posting my LinkedIn article about an asset I sold on Sketchfab. The asset was made with Substance Painter and used by a modder from Nexus Mods. Link to the LinkedIn aericle https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/growing-importance-modding-gaming-industry-digital-fashion-koziel-7q0je/?trackingId=xjh00j3RnsnMALq4wv87nQ%3D%3DCan anyone explain why? My Discord handle is Bartholomewkoziel#3609.This is very frustrating for me, and it feels quite unfair.Thank You for your Support.

I am not able to drag and drop Smart Masks on my masked layers in Substance Painter,    

Hello,I often use paint masks on black masks to designate areas where I want to assign my materials.Yesterday, I worked on a file with a lot of materials, using black masks and paint masks to assign them.This morning, when I reopened my file, some paint masks had visually disappeared from the black masks, yet the areas in question were still correctly painted.The black masks appear visually empty, so they shouldn’t be painting any areas.When I delete the black masks, the material is applied normally to the entire object, which shows that something specific was being applied.Have you encountered this bug?Thank you in advance,Best regards.

So- I am trying to transfer a texture to another version of the same mesh. The UV map is EXACTLY the same, no edits or anything, it is only the mesh's shape that has been changed... yet, no matter what I do- whether it's importing the other mesh version into the same Substance file, or trying to use a smartmaterial in a new file, the texture ends up completely warped and incorrect.I need a way to get the textures to match up TO THE UV, not the mesh, because the brush strokes no longer match the same way on the mesh because it has been edited... but since the UV is the same, the textures SHOULD be able to apply to the mesh just fine. Yet for some reason, it always seems to go off of the 3D object instead of the UV when applying the textures. How do I fix this??

  We’ve just released the latest version of Substance 3D Painter! New features in this version include:   Fill Area Filter: Create a closed shape – a circle, or a heart, or some weird, angular polygon; whatever you like – and the Fill Area Filter allows you to fill that shape with colors or gradients. The filter can fill multiple shapes, and will dynamically update with any changes to the original shape. This feature can be used with paths, shapes, and masks, and it’s possible to have different properties for the outline and the fill of the shape.   Import Image with Embroidery Filter: Add an image or text to your artwork, and the Embroidery Filter will display it as an embroidered patch. The properties of the patch can of course be modified in the filter’s parameters.   Import USD with Materials: You can now import USD files with associated texture and shader settings into Painter from another application; all associated textures and shader settings will be mainta

When following the hello plugin example from here:https://helpx.adobe.com/substance-3d-painter-python/api/plugins/hello-plugin.html Updated to use PySide6: from PySide6 import QtWidgets import substance_painter.ui plugin_widgets = [] def start_plugin(): hello_widget = QtWidgets.QTextEdit() hello_widget.setText("Hello from python scripting!") hello_widget.setReadOnly(True) hello_widget.setWindowTitle("Hello Plugin") substance_painter.ui.add_dock_widget(hello_widget) plugin_widgets.append(hello_widget) def close_plugin(): for widget in plugin_widgets: substance_painter.ui.delete_ui_element(widget) plugin_widgets.clear() if __name__ == "__main__": start_plugin()  When the plugin is enabled a new dock widget is added as expected.  But when disabling the plugin, only the QTextEdit widget is removed. The outter dock widget is still present, just empty.  With the plugin diabled there is now an orphaned

I just bought creative cloud for student for a asset creation class. The websight shows 3d abd Ar apps in what is included for the student cloud packege it is in fact not incuded there is a separate student plan for the 3d apps but it is not inclouded in Cloud and you need to apply for it. If I click on see what's included it does not show the 3d apps but I was 100% under the impresion that the 3d apps were inclouded becase it shows that they are. Why is this is there some reason that im missing. 

 I've just tested that simple shape that have 128 points and it lagges.note that this bug suddenly appeared.what the solution could be ?

I use Substance Painter to generate a LOT of PBR materials for use in another program. I use the gltf PBR Metal Roughness output template for this. When I import the PBR materials into the target program they ALWAYS have the alpha mode set to BLEND. I edited the bin file and found text that says:"alphaMode": "BLEND", This causes all of the materials to appear incorrectly in the target program which needs alpha mode to be OPAQUE. So, I have to manually edit each PBR material, change the setting and save it. Small annoyance, but it happens ALL the time. Is there a way in Substance Painter to control what the alpha mode is on the output, to toggle it, or at least set it to OPAQUE?

I don't know what's happened, but after the newest update this week, when I start Substance Painter, I get an error that it was not shut down properly and it crashes.  When I try to send a report, it can't send the report.  I finally came here to manually enter the report.  After I close that window, Substance Painter starts and seems to function normally.My system specs:Device name NatTwentyProcessor 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13700HX 2.10 GHzInstalled RAM 64.0 GB (63.7 GB usable)Device ID E233D4A2-8A56-48E1-AB35-FBEA8CB4F92AProduct ID 00342-21104-14527-AAOEMSystem type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processorPen and touch Pen supportEdition Windows 11 HomeVersion 23H2Installed on ‎2/‎22/‎2024OS build 22631.4169Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22700.1034.0Manufacturer AcerPlease tell me there is no way that Substance Painter is too advanced for this computer I just bought approximately seven months ago because that would be absolutely ridiculous.
