[Substance Designer] BaseColour Bitmap discrepancy SD Vs. UE4 (Images)

Croftyness

I've created a tileable texture in substance designer 5.1
The base colour in SD and the imported base colour in UE4 look slightly washed out and brightened. Does anyone know why this is the case?

^^^ Material and Bitmap in Substance Designer.

^^^ Source PNG

^^^ Material and Bitmap in UE4

^^^ Bitmap and settings in UE4

Try disabling sRGB in the texture settings in UE4. See if that helps.

Is your texture exported in 16bits png ?
UE4 import 16bits textures but display them incorrectly (only the preview, they should react normally in the material). This issue will be in 4.9 if I remember correctly.

If you really need a good preview in the texture editor of UE4, simply export as 8bits (you can force it on a node in Designer or simply use a 8bit format like tga).
