I just got substance painter and i am trying to texture a pretty basic wooden crate:

I want to add so edge wear to the sides of the crate but i have no high poly version so (as far as i know) I cannot bake the correct map to make the edge wear work correctly. Is there anyway to add nice edge wear to this without having a high poly version?

P.S. if you know of any substance painter tutorial that can help me texture basic models like this one please link me :smile:

    Allergoritmic's youtube channel got some cool beginner tutorial,
    For your map did you try to bake using your low poly ? could work but in this case ( excuse the bad pun ) I'd do it by hand

    I tried baking with my low poly and worked perfect :smile: but now im running into a issue where my height map is ignoring masks, for example: the entire crate is wood except for the hinges, but when i try to put a different texture on the hinges by masking off the wood fill layer, the height map still stays on them :/

    Height map will always ignore masks unless you change the blending mode of your Height channel from Linear Dodge to Normal on the group level.
