Substance Designer 5.5.1: OpenGL rendering black geometry

jaspilar

Not sure what happened considering the project has been going smoothly until now but suddenly all of my geo is rendering black in OpenGL. It looks fine in IRay though, can somebody help me resolve this issue? I've reset just about every option possible in 3D view with no luck.

Can you check which shader the OpenGL view is using and if you have the appropriate setup in your graph (Diffuse if you are using Spec/Gloss, BaseColor if you are using Metal/Roughness).

jaspilar

OpenGL is set to default (physically_metallic_roughness) all the outputs seem to be correct as well. I can send my file if need be? I may be missing something completely obvious here.

Jerc

yes can you send me the file via PM?

I'm having the same problem. Was working on a file last night and now when I opened it I'm getting a black mesh.
If I open light properties and enable the rim and fill lights, those will work. Toggling the key light has no effect.
Rebuilt shaders
Toggled post effects in camera
Changed environment HDRI file

So here is the
WORKAROUND SOLUTION:
  I copied all my nodes and pasted them into a new graph and it's working just fine...

You probably have an empty ambientocclusion output, for next time.

Can confirm, if your 3d view is darkened out, there is a blank output map some where. In my case it was a blank AO map.

That fixed my issue. Thanks!!
