Substance 3D Sampler 4.2 introduces a new AI powered version of Image to Material and a new AI Upscale feature. This version includes complete control of the resolution per layer.

 

Release date: 05 September 2023

 

Image to Material – New Version

Image to Material generates material channels (base color, roughness, normal, displacement and metallic) for you from a single image.
The updated version of Image to Material improves the material generation and the range of materials supported.
Now, Image to Material has been trained on all material types, generating better results for Fabric, plastic, wood, etc.
The updated version has a new parameter to select the material type to generate accurately all channels and automatically adjust the range.


AI Upscale

Thanks to the new Upscale layer, Sampler enhances features of your material or image by multiplying by 2 or by 4 the resolution of your asset (material or image).
This allows to increase the quality and the level of details of low-resolution textures maintain feature coherency between maps during textures enlargement.
The Upscale filter enhances base color, normal, height, roughness, and metallic channels of your material.
To maximize the results quality, the Upscale filter should be used on data (material and image) at their original resolution without previous resolution change.

 

Layer Resolution

The new system of Layer Resolution lets you have full control over the resolution of each layer. A layer takes the resolution of your document size or the resolutions of the layer below.
The resolution is displayed on each layer to easily visualize the impact of your work on the resolution of your material.
This allows you to increase the quality of your materials, but also performance while working on your assets.
