Greetings,

 

I am using the Substance Painter (Steam Edition) version 7.3.0 build 1272

The project I am working with was built with a previous version of substance and it warned me that it would need to update it to make it comptable with this update , which I did.

I was looking for the Stitch tool (I've not used it before) and was having difficulty locating it in the shelf.

According to your own guide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CKHKjAtAOw , It says select the brush tool and go to shelf and select the Tools category 

 

I could not find this category in the Shelf or the others either such  Particles, Color Profiles etc,

but if I search in the shelf I can locate the assets, but this means I kneed to know what to look for - is this correct ?

Correct answer davescm

In the current version look for those brushes in the shelf under Starter Assets > Presets > Tools

Particles is also under Starter Assets > Presets > Particles

LUTS are in Starter Assets > colorluts

Trying to help my son learn this. He has a similar problem, many of the defaults are missing. he's running 7.4.0

When you click on the "hide non-applicable folders" it shows more but they are grey'd out

To clarify, he's trying to follow along the standard spider bot tutorial and we cannot find the grunge maps. the interface seems to have changed since that tutorial was recorded.
