I have no Metallic output in Substance Player

Hi

Hope 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?

Hello @Ricky Bla299555287kyv,

 

Thanks for the question.

 

I don't frequently use Substance Player, but I guess it's possible the original SBSAR doesn't have a metallic ouptut. Considering the material, I wouldn't bother too much with the metallic, which is probably set to 0. 

 

Best regards,

Thank you. You are correct. I've tried some other generators and files and it does vary depending on which I use.
