Substance Designer mesh input experiments
Hello everyone! I've been very inspired by Dannie Carlone and his zbrush+designer workflow (him and others!) that totally shows the strength of baked geometry, and that brought me back to the first thing I ever wished I had in SD: a mesh node !… -
Re: Substance Designer mesh input experiments
Impressive result ! Mesh node as you in import your .obj mesh (and textures) to Designer and splatter it around (using their height) How did you manage to implement that controller dot here ? Is it a 2017 feature? Awesome! Thanks for all comments been busy with work I'll use it some more and add stuff soon :) Edit: Alright… -

Hi Elwood does it say anything or just shut down? When you try to pop a Height sampler node?I've been using it on 2018 without the issue so farlet me know! -
Re: Substance Designer mesh input experiments
No idea what OP meant by mesh node, but only way to make it work in Designer - is by using pseudovolume textures and some sort of raymarcher algorithm. Luckily, I was able to make draft of it in under 1 day time: It takes texture rendered in Houdini via Volume Textures tool and makes some magic inside. I'll post link in my… -
Re: Substance Designer mesh input experiments
do you have to use a RGBA Split to get it out and is R the height? Yes you do! From what I can see, if you want to make a pile you cannot just use this height sampler node as you will face lots of interpenetration (+ You won't conrol depth very well) try using Pile Layering which masks most elements that are over other… -
Re: Substance Designer mesh input experiments
Hi everyone Here are the results for quick various height maps on a mesh : So this thing is functional and saves quite a lot of time as before this I'd have been choosing my rotations and baking separately. It's nice to visualize your height map like this, but I have to say I haven't used it yet as I prefer my <Disorder…
