ANSWERED: Quixel Suite DDO material problem

jjsuperspy

so im having a problem with ddo materials not working properly like I select a material like Dirty steel for example and select that and when its loaded in the textures are not there and its just a flat colour representing it.

Hopefully this image will explain whats going on.





as you can see one part has a texture and the other should but it does not.

Would you please upload that image to Imgur? My work filter blocks the image link you're posting. Also, judging by the symptoms you're experiencing, this thread will probably help you out.

As Synaesthesia says, Metallic workflow is probably the cause of the problem here. Are you working with Metallic?

Hey guys thanks for the reply and yes I am using metallic and somehow iv'e made it work. I basically load in the other materials then what I do is I save the project close it then re-open the project add in another material and repeat the steps again. Would it be best just to go down the spec route for PBR and convert them over afterwards.

Wiktor

Yes, for now I'd do the work-around of working with spec and going metallic afterwards.

marvelous.
What a nice work-around. One could even say its a feature after all.

I just hope these issues will be gone with 2.0

Synaesthesia

I haven't seen this particular issue crop up yet, so it's safe to say that it's gone. If it isn't, we'll make sure it goes away.
