Where to get a 'starter' library of substances (w/graphs i.e. sbs format)
I'm interested in acquiring a library of substances to use as starting points for my own substances, and as learning examples to be inspired by. Any thoughts on how to do this? What I've looked into so far: It doesn't seem like Substance Designer ships with many useful examples. In Substance Painter (which I also have),… -
Re: Help - Mesh is causing flipped normals across axes in substance (non overlapping UVs), nothing works
Hello ! Well, Substance Painter will never be the actual target environment for the model to be displayed in - an actual game engine will be. Hence I personally see no point in giving *any* attention to the way things shade in Substance Painter (outside of making sure that the generators behave as intended). In other… -
Re: Arcane Inspired 3D Character Bust
All lighting is manually painted here, I'm using a shader that disables all actual lighting in substance painter. The image I posted is just screen captures I took from substance and combined/cleaned up in photoshop. Nothing fancy, but I like to present things cleanly if I can haha -
Weird shading issue between Substance Painter and Blender, no idea how to fix
Hello, I've been working on this game-res guitar model for the last month or so and I've noticed that some issues seem to pop up when exporting my texture maps from Substance to Blender. As you can see here, the shading on the model appears fine inside of Substance. The normal map from my high-poly bake seems to be doing… -
Re: Quixel Vs Subtance
Never got along with Substance Painter, but I like the Substance Designer and I use it a lot. Its more stable and faster than Quixel. I find it also easier to explain to coworkers which is a huge benefit for me. When working as a team on different assets we can achieve similar quality more easily. Substance has some… -
Substance painter settings and UE5 Substrate material settings.
What Substance workflow + export settings would you use to get the best results in UE5 using the new Substrate materials? Mainly to prevent 'white fringes' problem that was common in the UE metalness workflow around gradual transitions between metal and non-metal materials like dirt and paint? So basically a 'specular' PBR… -

Material made in substance designer (sbsar) crashes substance painter when loading
I made a material in substance designer (5.4) and it works fine there, i see the output. But when i publish it as .sbsar and load it into painter (2.2) by copying into the appropiate shelf folder, it starts taking too long to load its preview and then it crashes. It's not too massive (28kbs), all procedural and there's… -
Substance designer for modeling. What's the advantage?
I'm a newbie in Substance Designer. Recently, I've been fascinated with modeling in Substance Designer. Cem Tezcan and Lee Borrer's works are two of my favorite SD creators. I'd like to know, what are the advantages of using SD for modeling? Especially regarding Unreal Engine game performance. I really want to dive into… -
Re: Substance Painter - Master Thread
A couple questions: I'm currently attempting to slide some of our pipeline to substance painter (from designer). I'd like to leverage all the power of using published substances and gain the artist friendlyness of painter. One of the current kinks in my plan, is that when updating substances in designer, the updates don't…
