Substance Painter Curvature Map Errors
Hi everyone, I am currently trying to bake my textures from a highpoly mesh to a lowpoly mesh, and for the most part everything is working fine, but I had noticed these weird sharp points on my texture and when redoing the bake I noticed they were coming from the curvature map. I have tried adjusting the settings but… -
Re: Are people actually use Substance Designer for a job?
For your blurring issue, you can set your fill layer filtering in Painter. By default it's using bilinear filtering, but you can set it to a sharp bilinear that will preserve details a bit more, or nearest to make sure you don't get any resampling, but you may get some really sharp texels popping out. Also make sure you… -

How to deal with hard surfaces
Hey dear quixel'er, does anybody have a good suggestion how to deal with hard surfaces with sharp edges?

Re: WIP Mortuary: What I wish someone told me 8 years ago (but to be honest, I couldn't listen)

Trying to avoid any color bias… -

Re: Are edges of shadows more saturated?
this is a painting trick , it is used to bring more emphasis on the shadows without having to make the super sharp, this way your eyes registers the shadows as being hard/crisp/well-defined, but they are still blurry. The reason behind NOT having super sharp shadows is because you can't have the shadow form sharper than… -
Re: Nikon d200 photo quality
i'm experiencing the very same with my Canon EOS 350D - i think it's the lenses which cut the most of the perfect sharpness. On the other hand I only had to work with the full resolution outcome a few times for print-design and for all web-related stuff and image-shows I'm usually have to resize the pictures that much that… -
