Why is Substance Painter killing my textures?
Hello guys, I'm confused here. I have an 8K normal map which I loaded into SP to texture my gun. I export textures at 2K resolution but when I open in MT2, it looks horrible and pixelated. My textel density is not the problem because if I take this same 8K normal map, and downscale it to 2K in photoshop, it looks perfect!… -
Re: Mudbox Vs Substance Painter for Stylized Wow-esque Textures?
Haha, good response. Its possible to get a hand painted texture out of SP, but its also possible paint a house with a toothbrush. Its just not something one would normally do if they are trying to get the best results with the least amount of stress and time wasted. I have found it extremely difficult to blend with SP,… -
Re: SUITE 2.0 status update!
@SLOT, you can do at any resolution in SP since it's procedural, you can paint and 512 or 1k and export at 4k, works just fine. I am not here to start SP vs Quixel really, and I did not come to say one is better or something like that, I just said is nothing impressive for an un-released product and expected from 1 year… -
Substance Painter 1.5 crashes my computer
Hi, i'm testing out SP 1.5 but i haven't gotten really far into it simply because after using it for anywhere from 1 to 10 minutes it crashes my computer giving an error saying something like: Unable to recover from kernel exception. The application must close. Error code: 3 Proceeds to freeze my computer and i having to… -
Re: 3DS Max 2015 Creasemod.dlm error
the corefiles registry error essentialy causes a premature ending of the install routine, leading to exactly the files/parts you mention not getting installed ( Crease Explorer etc.. ) I ( and other people ) had this corefiles installer error too for some time . Autodesk was'nt able to come up with a fix AFAIK. My… -
Yet another problem with substance to toolbag :'(
Hello polypeeps. I've been looking for days for a fix on this and I cant find one anywhere so I'm making my own post. In substance painter, I have my normals bake from my high-res model and a painted in some height information in addition. Painter then, for those who might not know, combines both maps into a new exported… -
Re: Smoothing Groups and Baked Normals
Thanks for pointing that out, FourtyNights. That problem seems to be the case, but since I was not sure about my model's quality (and blindly relied on SP) I tried to fix it first. I just downloaded a Marmoset trial, checked the first model and the one with the new UV layout on the affected areas. The first model on… -
Re: Smoothing groups, Tangents and Binormals, Triangulate
Thx @Axi5 and @Noors. Yeah I discovered that Maya 2018 bug as well. I am baking in Substance Painter, so usually I only select Smoothing Group or Triangulate on Maya export (given same tangent space between Unity and SP). But the question is I don't quite know why Smoothing Group helps: I always assumed it helps because SP… -
Re: Baking of multiple high-poly onto multiple low-poly objects using same UV map
Another option is to explode both of your meshes so there are no intersecting meshes. For baking in SP, set your ID color source to polygroup/submesh ID, if that one didn't work, then try mesh ID instead. If your in max, you need a multi-sub material - be sure to also name each sub material so they are unique in name, it… -
Re: Is texture padding important?
Let's assume that you're going to use Marmoset Toolbag 3 for baking and Substance Painter for texturing. When baking in MT3, it's advisable to bake with "infinite" (extreme setting) edge padding/dilation for better mipmapping. Bringing baked maps with proper edge padding for SP also helps to work in its viewport with…
