The new Substance Designer has Parametric Modelling

At the risk of reading like an undercover adobe employee running damage control, I think beyond the rebrand, this set of updates are good, actually.

For the uninitiated (and it is very easy to be uninitiated with the way this was handled),

Here are the changelogs.

Designer | Painter | "Sampler"

The marketing for this release was so poorly handled but, the updates themselves are at the very least interesting.

Like, who would have thought designer would have basically geometry nodes or like, raytracing nodes?

i knew the raytracing was coming - I'm glad because implementing it myself proved very difficult


but yes.  they completely failed at marketing

Can it mesh  something based on texture input ?  Like turning edge detect into actual edges  and polygons?
