Re: Research and development
Just wanted to chime in that this is one of the best SP mods I've played. It does play a bit like an adventure game and there are a couple puzzles that might test your patience, but it's never so difficult that you want to quit. The last segment, however, is what really shines. I think They Hunger was the last SP mod I… -
Re: Expert in a year - 3D artist
If you go with Substance Painter then you can avoid having to learn extra software in the form of quixel and xnormal. It's personal of course but QS isn't a patch on SP and xnormal for me is obsolete pretty much as SP bakes just as good and about as hassle-free as you can get. Plus the bonus of realtime map bake… -
Substance painter doesn't load designer material.
When I try to load my material I made in designer in painter it won't load sp starts getting stuck. And it doesn't put my material on it. I've waited over 5 minutes to load it on 256 and it didn't load. I tried loading it in substane player at 4k and it loaded within a few seconds. SD and SP are both up t date. -
Re: UV, Chamfer and Texturing
@Eric Chadwick could you move this to tech talk forum please, I just don't think it fits in Substance forum. Admittedly I mentioned SP but this isn't about how to texture in SP, it's about how to design UV and whether or not chamfer should be used in some cases. (I think I posted this in tech talk forum and it got moved… -
Re: testing Xnormal and Substance painter, baking normal map
Here's a quick test I did using a single smoothing group synced workflow between SP and UE4 Bartalon is correct, the smoothing artifacts will be visible on your normal map but this doesn't matter in a synced workflow as both SP and UE4 are calculating the tangents/bi-normals in an identical manner(mikkt) NM is 16bit… -
Re: Recommended software for baking normals/ambient occlusion maps?
One of the cons of xNormal is that it doesn`t support .fbx files and it is slower than SP, but AO maps generated by xNormal are so nice! Substance Painter has nice feature "match by mesh name" so you don`t need to explode your mesh before baking. If you use SP for texturing i would suggest you to bake your maps there, it… -
Re: Substance Painter vs Quixel Suite 2.0
Substance painter is so cumbersome to use that i would go with Quixel if you don't want to loose a lot of time and have work being done instead of trying to figure out how SP work. SP will probably get better in 3 to 5 years but as it is now it's a no go for me. So many artists are quicker with the good old photoshop… -

Re: Substance Painter 1.3 MikkT tangent basis
wes.sau, Modo can't export tangents & bitangents. So for UE4 I just import Normals. @Warren, nice! I haven't tried baking within SP or SD, good to know it works. I think Jerc mention the viewport in 1.3 would sync to MikkT... I'll give baking in SP a try, though for many of my bakes I need to stick to modo because I use…
