Image to Material Introduces Seams in a Seamless Texture

Hi!

 

I am facing a difficult problem with the Image to Material AI that I believe to be a bug.

I have completely seamless textures I am trying to create maps from, but whenever I run them through the AI, horrible seams are introduced by the software on the edges of the source texture.

 

Is there a way to fix this? Maybe a setting I am overlooking? I've tried tweaking all sliders in the AI settings, but this never goes away. I've included screenshots of what the seams look like.

 

Thanks!

    I'm wondering the same thing.  Please be honest...will this issue ever be fixed?  It's been going on for a veeeeery long time.  And frankly, this feature is the #1 reason why I have the Adobe Substance subscription.

    LoryAline, I am using version 4.1.0 of Sampler and every time I import a seamless texture using Image to Material (AI Powered), it STILL introduces seams.  I thought this problem had been solved.  What am I missing here?

      Lory, I am experiencing these same problems.  Every time I feed a seamless texture into Sampler using Image to Material (AI), it actually introduces seams to the seamless texture.  Is there a workaround or solution for this issue yet?  If not, do you have an anticipated time frame?  This is throwing a big wrench into my ability to work with Sampler.  Thanks.

      As far as we know the seam problem already existed in Alchemist it occurs on any pre-tiled images.

      That would depend on your current subscription, if you have an Allegorithmic subscription you should be able to log in Alchemist, you can access Alchemist builds and license from https://www.substance3d.com/
      Go to My License>Licenses>All Builds

       

      Thank you.

       


      At some point in Alchemist's history, I'm absolutely positive that it was able to successfully handle the input of seamless textures.  The question is whether or not the version I currently have on my PC has the seam issue or not. 

       

      I moved my subscription over to Adobe a few months ago because I thought Adobe would provide fully functional software.  Now I no longer have an Allegorithmic subscription and am up a creek without a paddle.  Very frustrating.
