USD export does not include all 5 textures

Community Beginner ,

I am trying to export textures to use in USD (Apple reality converter).

I select the built in "USD PBR Metal Roughness" preset:

In the documentation it states that this is supposed to:

Five texture files are created and saved (base color, metallic, normal, occlusion and roughness)

This would be perfect!

However, in the "List of exports" tab I only get 2 or in some texture sets, 1 file:

And sadly, when I export textures, this is exactly what I get.

 

Any tips for getting all 5 textures (and the usdz) from SB would be awesome?

 

Notes:

- I'm not using UDIMs

- I haven't overridden any settings in individual texture sets

- Substance Painter 8.2.0 on win10

I think I've found the solution:

 

1. Change the Shader settings to pbr-metal-rough-with-alpha-blending (I have some glass in my model):

2. within each texture set add the relevant channels (e.g. Basecolor, roughness etc):

I have no idea why it was set up this way but hopefully this helps anyone else with the same issues in the future.

Have you got all 5 maps in your texture set - either in the material or in the baked maps? If the channels are disabled or not present there will be no output map.

I've just tested here and I see all five, provided they are present in the texture set to output.

Thanks Dave,

I think so...here's an example texture set that is only exporting Normal and Occlusion textures.

Perhaps a clue is that if I go into "+" under channels, Base color is only under Unsupported by Shader:

Any tips would be super-helpful...I've clearly set this project up incorrectly somehow!

The export preset was looking for Base, Metal, roughness channels whereas you were using a Diffuse, Specular, Gloss workflow.
