Hi,

I am new to using substance painter and I have an issue where my obj that I have exported from clo 3d isn't loading in substance painter. I have made sure that my patterns peices don't overlap in the UV editor, not sure if there is another issue there. I was able to open the file in blender and also 3d stager but not 3d painter.

My settings are attached below: I also need to have UV Tile settings checked for my work

for painter when I am importing the obj

Had the same issue. Make sure your UV maps are correct. Meanning there is no patterns outside the UV tile, even sligtly poking out.

Hi Cyril

Thanks for you assitance. I applied your suggestions and still not working. I don't think my issues are my UV maps. I tried to click recompute all in my UV maps but it is taking a while for the file to load? is that normal. I have attached my settings for the unwrap sequence. Let me know if there is anything else I can try.

Hello Linda,

I probably know where the issue comes from. Your mesh has currently 31 Material IDs. Each time Substance 3D Painter finds a new Material ID, it will create a new Texture set (this is in fact what's defining a Texture set). This is probably not what you want, considering the UDIM workflow you mentioned.

In addition, some of the UVs are bigger than its UV map and are poorly unwrapped. Make sure to have clean UVs before creating a project, or check the Recompute all box under the auto-unwrap settings.
