Substance 3D Painter

Hello, I am totally angry because I know its probably something I am missing, but for some reason my 3D object will show as a flat object on my workspace, why I follow all the Import instruction, and it does not accept any colour change or masks in the material mode. Please help me.Massie

Hi there all,I'm having a couple of issues working with Substance Painter 8.3 stencils. The 1st is possibly a bug, and the 2nd is possibly a feature request. 1) when holding 'S' to adjust the size, rotation and zoom of the stencil, the model goes so dark, it's impossible to transform the stencil as required. Bug?2) Is it possible to lock the zoom of the stencil and model?  e.g. when using the stencil to paint items that need to be of a uniform size (Screw heads,etc), it just needs an inadverdant zoom of the model to throw things out of wack.  Unless I'm missing somthing, then please put this down as a feature request. 🙂ThanksJon

Hi, I am currently try to export my project texture with my own preset by Python. My Substance Painter version is 8.3.0.0I found that this line go fine substance_painter.resource.ResourceID( context="starter_assets", name="Arnold (AiStandard)").  #Result: resource://starter_assets/Arnold (AiStandard)At the export_config = "exportPath": "C:/export","defaultExportPreset" : export_preset.url() or "resource://starter_assets/Arnold (AiStandard)" I would like to ask is there any way to get the url to my own preset?I locate my own preset at \Document\Adobe\Adobe Substance 3D Painter\assets\export-presets

I'm new to using substance painter, and decided to purchase the 2023 app from steam. The app itself works fine I can open it, paint, bake all that good stuff. However after saving a file as .spp and closing the app, when I try to open it agan... nothing. The app doesn't open and when I try to open the file with a program I get an error message saying "Catastrophic Failure".I also tried saving as a template to see if that would work but was met with the same message when trying to open it. Finaly I tried opening the file from the Substance Painter app (File > Open/Ctrl + O) and it opens straight away.I can open the file so I can't complain but at the very least I was wondering why I'm unable to open files externaly to the app? Does this happen on the Adobe suite version aswell? Or is this a bug on the Steam version?

I think I've done everything correctly in terms of UVs (maybe not!, that's why I'm here) but after baking I'm still seeing UV seams. If someone who's experienced and solved these issues could take a look at this model and bake it to avoid seeing seams, then share what I might have done wrong with the setup, it would be much appreciated. BIG Thanks in advance.

Hi AllI'm looking to move from Mari to Substance Painter and wanted some more info about working with high poly meshes. I've only been able to find info regarding the baking process that utilises a high to low workflow.As a character artist working with Mari, my workflow to date is as follows:Sculpt in ZBrushBake out Normal and Displacement maps for application in 3D app (Modo)Export high poly OBJ from ZBrush to retain inherrent displacement and fine detailImport this high poly OBJ into Mari and Paint on highpoly mesh.Painting on this displaced, high poly mesh in Mari ensures that any maps created will closely match the position and finer detail of the displaced mesh when all of the maps are used incombination in Modo.In Substance, as I understand it, high poly details are only baked onto low poly meshes as Normal map info when setting up and therefore the baked result is not a displaced, higher poly mesh.Is there no Substance workflow that utilises higher poly meshes (with much of the

I created my adobe ID with my school email and i submited a request but I didn't recive the email. I read here that a lot of people have the same problem, when will this issue be aproximatly solved? Thank you

Hi,I am a student and i understand that there is a free version of Substance 3D Painter for students. I followed the instructions and applyed for it and was suppossed to get an email back but did not.More than a week passed. What should i do?

I am currently try to get the Substance Painter version of the project I have saved in. I am using Substance Painter 8.3.0 and use it to open the project from 8.2.0. Now it's able to see in the log.[INFO]<Paint Document> The project has been updated from version 73 to version 75.[INFO] <Paint Document> Project was last saved with Substance 3D Painter 8.2.0But I am currious about how to get this property by any script language. If you have any idea, please feel free to help me out. Thank you for reading this!!

I'm probably missing something basic but here goes... It's metal I'm currently working with but it's any shiny or glossy material that this is an issue. I'm finding that it simply doesn't show as shiny or glossy on flat surfaces in the 2D window.Which is a problem for me since I'm exporting  textures using 2D View to have the shiny/glossy materials baked on the textures.Changing the rotation of the environmental lighting just runs through flat tones, none of them shiny. Here's an example on a 3D text sign I'm currently working on. You can see the the thin sides of the model on the UV texture nice and shiny metal because they're made up of curves from the lettering, but the flat front surface simply not:https://gyazo.com/1a06ffda28a66dff8751dff9fd3ea78c 

Hello, i dont know if i should post this here but i have a question, as a student i want to free download substance painter, i know that i can do it using the virtual certificate that proves that i can get the license to get this time limited version, im lost in the website and im not able to find where can registry and do it, can i get some help? Thank you so much! 

Sometimes when I adjust the opacity of my object, its faces disappear.(for instance the bottle on the left) (UVs seem fine...no overlapping) (The tangents are calculated on import so it can't be the normals) Here's the link to the .fbx file of the high poly mesh used : https://ufile.io/5r2dwsfdHere's the link to the .spp file : https://ufile.io/hoelrf62Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. 

Over the past couple of months, I have had an issue where Substance Painter will totally freeze my laptop when trying to do anything in it, forcing me to hard-shut down my laptop. I'm pretty sure this is not an issue with my laptop per se, because it used to run Substance Painter quite comfortably and I have been able to use many other intensive applications without any issue. This is an issue that occurs with every version, not just recent ones either, as I downgraded to the earliest version my subscription would allow and the issue still occurs. I have tried disabling a number of options in Substance settings and these have had no effect.

Hello Everyone! 🙂 I downloaded a 3D Asset from Substance, the Polyester Spandex Jersey to texture my garment in Painter.I shared this asset from Sampler to Painter and applied it. I have a high poly mesh and all my uv textures are at 4k resolution, but nevertheless the 3D Fabric looks very blurry and not sharp. There is no possibility so the the knitting texture and any fabric details. Also in the IRay Render.Perhaps I'm using wrong settings for the 3D assets. I hope that someone can help me. 

I need to renew my educational license but they told me to send them a product code and i dont´know where to find it, and they don´t give me any solution. Any advice? Thank you.

I get used to Painter. I got only one Problem. I want to export the Heightmap into Cinema 4d. The Heightmap is to Overlightet. How can i make the Heightmap more intense ? Mostly all of the Map is White. I want it in a gray Shade. Does it make a Difference if save the textures as a PNG or JPG ? Cinema does not accept Normal Maps wich have paintet in a external Normal map Software.I need to start with Cinema and translate a Heightmap into a Normal. Importet Normal maps make the Render Buggy and dirty. As i have said teh Heightmaps exportet from Painter are far to Bright. 

In the Adobe creative cloud app it prevents me from keeping the latest versions when I wanna install an older version of painter.Is there a different way to get two versions to work on my pc?

Hi. I'm working on a model of a floppy disk. I finished the low-poly version and it looks great in Blender and also if I export it into ZBrush, both in the viewports and if I render it. However, as soon as I open the .fbx in Substance Painter, there are artifacts all over the model. This isn't a baking issue, as they're there prior to baking - as soon as the model is imported. I baked it anyway, just to see what would happen, and although this masks the problem in a few of the areas, it's still clearly apparent in others. What have I done wrong here? All normals are facing the right way, and I've used MERGE BY DISTANCE to check there are no double vertices. I've attached screenshots which will hopefully make the issue clear. I'm still relatively new to 3D so please bear with me if it's just that I'm doing something daft. Thanks in advance.-Andrew

HiHope its okay to post this here, I cant see a forum for Substance Player.I am using the Woodflooring Generator from Poliigon. I don't get the option to export Metallic Bitmaps in Substance Player. In Parameters; Global Parameters; Workflow, I have selected Metallic/Roughness. In the 3D view under Materials; Defaults I have selected Metallic Roughness. I can see that Metallic is one of the outputs shown together with Base Colour, Normal, Roughness etc. in the window that then pops up next to the 3D view. But when I select Export as Bitmap Metallic is not there on the list! Can anyone suggest how I fix this?

I need to know wich Setup i should use if i export the texture Maps into Cinema 4d with Redshift. If i import the Normal Map into a Shader i got a weak Normal map on the Char. I want the Bump stronger.In Redshift it does not matter how Strong the normal is. It is very weak. I tried the Redshift exportscript, but the Normals are weak. Wich Exportscript would be better for Cinema Redshift ?

So, im working on a chair model and i made most of the texturing work already. Now in blender i decided to add screws. ID mark them with Vertex color and just add the uv's of the screws in the already free parts of the UV Map. Now i want import the updated model without losing my already textured parts and just do the textures for the screws. any way to do this? i dont want to remake the entire thing from scratch.

For some unexplained reason, when i import my model from blender the texture list looks like this https://gyazo.com/548731c04ab4d62ba237bd7a2b241567instead of having the names assigned to them from blender & i cannot select the layers. I've never had this issue before and am not sure why this happening.

So I just got my student license approved. I got the email, clicked on the link they sent me to redeem the and did it. Then i download Creative Cloud, went to the app and still asked me to buy it. What can I do to solve this?
