i got substance painter a while ago and i go to texture my model and i see visible seams.i have tried tri planar, clone stamp tool, increasing shader quality and nothing works. and coming here is my only hope, to give some context i use blender 3.4 and substance painter 9.1, my model does have weird topology with some areas being more dense and some just have n gons while the rest are quads. and i used zbrush for retopology because i couldn't find any other software to do it just as well, feel free to reach out and ask for more details.
Hi Everyone,For texturing purpose, should I need to apply the modifiers before exporting FBX from blender to SB Painter. And what other setting should I keep while exporting FBX? Thanks,Vasanth
Idk why it's so dark
When sharing projects with other artists, it can be useful to leave notes/comments on layers (or else). This feature would be especially useful for teams, but also for complex projects or tutorials.

Currently, the displacement’s value is a slider from -0.5 to 0.5. We could change this current behavior for values like Substance Designer with a Physical size units. Having similar values as other 3D apps will help having a more consistent visual between apps. This thread has been created in regards to a future QOL (Quality Of Life) release.

Details are still to be discussed, but we often need to have a similar parameter (tiling, rotation, etc.) between multiples fill layers. How convenient would it be to copy and paste a parameter?

Currently, there’s a choice of 7 colors to tag a Layer in Substance Painter. With this QOL update, we would let artists make their own color instead of choosing between the current ones.

Hi, as it says. saw this post[https://forum.substance3d.com/index.php?topic=26421.0]on the old forums and the poster self diagnosed it was a space issue on his hard drive. Well I have 18GB free on my C drive at present. surely this is enough for a save? please advisethanksD
Hello, I'm quite new to Substance Painter, so please let me know if there are different settings I should use. I have modelled a packaging in Artios, and I exported the 3d into a DAE Collada file When starting a new file in Substance Painter I get the same messages and it won't open my model. [Scene 3D] Collada: file:ENDGAME.DAE - Expected attribute "name" for element <material>.[Scene 3D] Failed to load 3D scene. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks!
Hello everyoneI have an Msi brand laptop. When I enter Substance Painter, the screen occasionally flickers. I do not experience this problem in normal use or games on the computer, I only experience it with this program. I tried all kinds of ways but I couldn't solve it. Reset, Driver uninstall etc. What is the solution to this? I've included a video below.
I need to obtain the color data of the user0 channel created by the artist in the shader file. If I can obtain this color data, I can perform some calculations on it and finally add it to the rendering result. Project situation: The artist wants to draw special strokes on the world space normal, that can produce special lighting effects. I can achieve the above effect by baking the texture and then reimporting it, but the efficiency is relatively low. The artist hopes to see the real-time lighting effect when drawing.
I'm using a Mac with an M1 Max chip and MacOS Sonoma Version 14.1.2 Substance Painter and Designer open a blank white window, and if I close this window Painter and Designer will crash. This happens almost immediately after opening Painter, and when I add 3D noise materials in Designer. Is it possible to even use these programs reliably on an M1 Mac?
I created a model in MAYA(2024) using several objects. I then "grouped" the objects together and "combined" only certain parts like the wings of the model. The first time I finished UV mapping the model I managed to get the model to load into the scene but there were issues with mesh and bi-tangent normals. I knew it was an issue with the mesh so I thought I fixed it. Second time I UV map the model I then tried combining everything into one mesh and UV mapped it anyway, still got an error. Now I've UV mapped every individual object and then grouped all objects together, but now I have an error saying "[Scene 3D] Errors have been found while splitting meshes per UV tile:Mesh 'Entrance' has faces in out of bounds UDIM indices: [0,-1].Mesh 'Entrance' has face(s) spanning across multiple UDIMs: [0,-1](up) 1001(down)." I also got another error code saying, "[Scene 3D] [FBX] : Mesh normals are invalid (some values are null) and will be recomputed". I went and took a look at the mesh name ind
Hi I am getting pixelated images on my 3D models when trying to place decals on my work. It's for a product packaging, so it should be a simple fix.I have adjusted the texture set settings, which have helped to some degree, however, the image quality is still to good. I have tried a variety of images, placing them as fill base colors, but I'm still getting the same outcome. I will attach a couple of photos to show the difference in quality between the PNG and the painter preview.If I increase the size of the photo, the pixelation goes and the image is perfect, however when trying to reduce the size of it in the UV section, this resolution degreases significantly.I've spent a few days trying to solve this, but still no closer, so any help will be great.Thanks
Buongiorno. Scusate, Como posso fare L account di Substance per il studente, se già ho account Adobe? Grazie
Im haveing this issue where parts of my baked maps have missing parts. (see screen shots bellow)
For instance I have a texture 512x4096 and want to save it 512x2048 . I have to go to Designer or Affinity Photo for that . Adobe ,please make it possible to save in whatever size I want and add pixel interpolation options . Like Lanczos3 non separable in Affinity photo. The best pixel interpolation so fat for textures IMO where I don't need to put extra sharpen node that adds its own artifacts .
Hey, so I'm trying to use my college's student plan to gain accesss to Substance Painter, but I'm having trouble getting it to work.My administrator/college's tech team has told me that I've been given access to Substance Painter upon me requesting access, but the app is still stuck with needing to request access.The tech team couldn't solve my problem after taking a look at my screen, so they told me to contact Adobe Support, but I've been having trouble getting in contact with them. I've tried calling and managed to get a hold on someone for a brief moment before they went completely silent just after introducing themself, and the other times I would need to wait. Would anyone happen to know how long it would typically take to get in contact with an agent?I've went through the forums, but this is the only closest post I could find that seems to have a similar problem: https://community.adobe.com/t5/enterprise-teams-discussions/started-30-day-trial-instead-of-1-yr-educational-lic
Further to my previous query here are some screenshots that may better explain where I am not understanding.Everything is done using PBR metallic roughness . Pic 1 is the baked maps in Substance, Pic 2 is the Metallic roughness material node in Arnold. and Pic 3 is the maps that get exported from Painter [ using Metallic roughness ] Notice there is no AO map exported. also if you look at the Arnold material node there is a slot for AO but NOT for the height map. ! Hopefully someone will clear this up.Cheers.
Hi, I've imported a simple extruded shape from Blender into Painter and I can't get any of the preset materials or textures to appear correctly (see attached). I am new at this, tried changing the projection settings but nothing is fixing the issue. What am I missing? Seems like it should be a simple setting somewhere in the workflow. thanks!
I am using the same model for many unique painter files that need to have their own unique texture names on export. Would like to have a $fileName flag for export so I don't have to manually manage them afterwards. Unless something exists already, could not find it in my searches.
