Marmoset 3.06 not rendering metalness as expected

Riddain · Oct 2019

I have been reworking an old project originally rendered in Marmoset 2, but now in Marmoset 3 I can't get the shiny metal areas to look right. They display fine in substance painter, but appear dull in Marmoset. I have tried changing lighting, skies, GI etc but still can't get it right. Hopefully someone can help!

Can you post a screenshot of your material settings in Toolbag?

And here is one with metalness cranked up to 1

Okay it looks like you have your roughness map inverted. Try unchecking the Invert option there.

Well that is embarrassing. That was the very first thing I tried and it resulted in everything becoming super glossy. I have just played with that setting again to take screenshots and show you but also quickly played around with sliders and skies etc and it's looking much more like it should.......it always ends up being something so simple - thankyou very much!!

Great, glad I could help. Yeah as long as the material settings there are synced up, you should expect to see fairly similar results. Lighting would then be the next thing to look at, so if you've got a drastically different sky or direct light setup you can expect the overall results to be quite a bit different.

Yeah that's exactly what I just messed around with - uninverted roughness, changed the sky to match substance, then played around with sliders and lights - all good now!
