Hi

 

Just got substance painter, and installed the Blender addon and got it working with the integration tools. (Both latest version) Tried exporting materials as sbsar and loading them via the blender addon, which just produces a black material. Downloaded some community SBSAR-files as well

 

Like this

https://substance3d.adobe.com/community-assets/assets/8421dd61a662f5eb92182a587b60eda3c2879544 

 

Also just produces a black texture which is also black if I apply it to the material. An Error flashes by (Added in the screengrab) But it is not very helpful. Anyone know where I could start to look for issues to get this resolved?

 

This is on a laptop running a Geforce 2060 RTX

 

Best regards

Johann

Thanks for the replies 🙂

 

It was a sbsar from the community resources called Stylized wood planks. It worked on my main computer but not on the laptop. Laptop is running the latest driver for the grapgics card. On the output tab I tried all of them and all show as black.

Hi J, thanks for letting us know what sbsar you used! I can find it on my end. But we'll need a bit more info to find the cause of the error. Could you please share a screenshot or copy and paste the contents of the System Console when the issue occurs (like Maria did above)?
On Windows you can see this by navigating to Window > Toggle system Console within blender. On Linux and Mac you can start the Blender executable via the terminal to keep the system console open.

Best,
Aldo

 was removed in version 2.2.0 and the error matches with the previous version that had issues with blender 4.3, so it looks like a bad install or you havent updated to the latest version, so i would fully remove the plugin and install it again
