Answered: How do i create a DDO custom material without a mesh or Id-map?

JackLeeroy

Hello everyone! 
I'm new to quixel suite and I'm looking for someone nice to explain if/how you can create a ddo custom material completely without a mesh, Id map.

I just want to make a albedo texture in photoshop, convert it to a normal and then work with it in ddo. Export these and use them in engine. 

Is this possible? 
I'm used to work with substance painter but I just want a quick way to create maps from images instead of the whole baking process

Thanks in advance

Materials don't require meshes or IDs, only input textures. Open the DDO menu and select Add Custom Material. It should be pretty self-explanatory from there.

Thanks for the reply mate!

 When I try to create a custom material in ddo and see what the results are in 3 do , 3 do crashes any idea why that is?

Not offhand, no. I'd need more information - such as your installed version of Suite and PS, along with system information.

I got the latest version of quixel suite 2 version 2.3.0

PS 2017 cc 64bit

My system: 
Windows 10 64 bit
Geforce Gtx 970
Intel core i5 3.30 ghz 3.60ghz

Based on that info, the best guess I have is that you probably need to upgrade your drivers.

Thanks for the help. I reinstalled the suite and installed some drivers. Works good now
