Substance 3D Painter

Hi everyone,I'm having a critical issue with Subsurface Scattering in Substance 3D Painter (version 12.2.0) where the effect is completely invisible in the viewport, despite having used it successfully in previous versions.I have already verified and applied the standard SSS setup workflow, so it is not a basic setup mistake:The Scattering channel is active in my Texture Set Settings. Enable Subsurface Scattering is checked under Display Settings. Enable Subsurface Scattering is active within the Shader Settings (using ASM/standard PBR shader). I tried adjusting the scale/distance parameters in the shader settings and rotating the HDRI for backlighting.     Additionally, I noticed that the Scattering channel now defaults to RGB instead of Grayscale like it used to. However, changing colors in the RGB channel or manually forcing the channel back to Grayscale via a Fill Layer changes absolutely nothing. The mesh remains completely flat with zero scattering, as if the shader is ignoring

Visible lines appear along the UV seams. Although the high-poly model has smooth transitions in these areas, those transitions become visibly interrupted in the baked result. The issue is not limited to a single area.

Hi!I’m looking for clarification on the licensing terms for steam’s Substance Painter perpetual license, Specifically for commercial use in an Indie Studio (5 Members)I’ve seen replies from ​@Jeremie Noguer on steam stating that:However, the steam EULA linked by ​@Cyril Dellenbach here, states that the 2014 Eula is still active today, which contains a $10,000 USD revenue restriction for commercial entities. Some clarification would be appreciated on whether this revenue restriction has actually been removed from the Steam version.I'd also like to know whether individual team members can purchase their own Steam licenses and use Substance Painter to create textures for a commercial game developed and owned by their studio. Each license would be tied to an individual team member's personal Steam account and wouldn't be shared.Would this be allowed under the current Steam license terms, or would we need to purchase Adobe business licenses instead?Thanks in advance for the help!

In production the model changes after feedback. The textures need to be updated still. When I import the new model change into Substance Painter, the 3D paint strokes are reprojected at the previous locations of the old model and end up not lining up with the new model change. This breaks any kind of use in production. SP is built assuming there are no model changes, which is not production friendly. Model changes are common.We should have the option to set projects to not record brush strokes in 3D space. Looks like when I paint in the 2D UV window, the re-projection is ignored and the paint there applies correctly to the new imported model. This should be the same behavior with 3D painted strokes also. SP is currently biased towards a workflow that assumes that the model always stays the same and that only the UVs change. This is the case less than half the times when we import a new model. Most of the time it's actually a model change that warrants the textures being

I created a jacket in CLO3d and exported as OBJ for use in Substance Painter. After baking my pockets become very dark (and collar is lighter). I feel it is due to the ambient occlusion reading the position of the OBJ when imported - the position of the OBJ is not straight. The dark pockets are also visible when adding a material to the jacket and it looks like the pockets are made out of a different material. How can I make sure the the ambient occlusion is more even (so thepockets doesn't become so dark)? I have checked UV normals are facing the right direction. I really appreciate some advice.  

This morning I got a notice that there was a new painter update so I downloaded and installed it. It told me on startup that I needed to update my video driver so I did that. Everything was working fine until a few minutes ago. Now, every time I try to bake mesh maps it locks up on me. Even with just a simple cube.Also, to the person who gave me a suggestion to try on making exhaust/oil streaks on a plane, thanks. I’ll give it a try.

Can someone give me some tips and suggestions for creating these exhaust streaks? I’ve tried several different brushes, so far nothing I’ve tried looks decent.

Hi all,Background:I create aviation safety videos and typically purchase helicopter models from Turbosquid, then rework them, mainly redoing textures in Blender with decals. I am still fairly new to Substance Painter, so please bare with me for any stupid questions that might be resolved with common workflows.Goals:Produce highly detailed, accurate aircraft models.Use textures (rivets, panel lines, etc.) to replicate fine details while maintaining accurate placement based on the real aircraft.Begin marketing my models on Turbosquid as more accurate, professional-grade options.Current workflow and challenges:Texture size: I have been using 8K or 4K textures, which generally works well, but rivets lose sharpness in close-up shots.The model I purchase usually have one texture map for external surfaces.  However it starts to create issues when trying to focus on details like rivets and screws. To improve resolution, I have been splitting models into multiple UV maps (for example EXT_T
