quixel suite stress masks

David1983

hey guys,
Is it possible to import my own "stress" masks into the quixel suite? The standard maks are cool but they are heavy repeating on bogger surfaces.

For example the dirt "mask" i would like to change the mask to a own bigger one... but how ?

The way I did it was to create a custom material. I just imported a map for the albedo and opacity, saved the material under C :Users\Public\Quixel\SUITE\script\presets\Materials\Patterns\ . Then you can select it as the texture to use in the mask editor.

ok cool, many thanx... But lets say i have a simple plain with a rusted metal material, and i like to change the mask with the one i have imported, where excatly can i load / switch the mask / map with my personal one ?

You can edit the mask directly in Photoshop. When you select your layer in DDo it will also select it in Photoshop. The mask is right there to edit if you need. Or when you enter the mask editor your can edit the mask directly. But I think if you enter the mask editor at a later time, it will erase the manual adjustments you made.

Once you edit the mask manually, select - copy mask to all maps.
