Substance Performance Issues
So I've been using the Substance toolkit for ~ 1 year, and my use has been plagued by performance issues - although really only with Painter. First off is the exorbitant amount of RAM it uses - it is probably the only program I have that sucks up nearly 6 Gigabytes of RAM for even small/medium models (<10,000 tris and… -
[Substance Painter] Distorted projection issue with overlapping UV islands
So, I have the assumption (correct me if I’m mistaken) that identical UV islands (in this case, for sections that are symmetrically mirrored on the mesh), can just be stacked over each other to give them more space, which allows them to be scaled up to hold more pixels and keep the UV maps from getting too cluttered. I’m… -
JM StylizedTools - Custom tools for stylized materials in substance designer
Hey everyone. I've been pushing to get results out of substance that are as close to what I would get manually sculpting as possible. I'm putting together a few packages of custom nodes that I use to do individual effects. The idea is to have a simple, one-stop (or node), tool for getting "stylized", sculptural results out… -

Substance Painter to Unity -- metalness and roughness channels have major disparity
SOLVED : Custom shader was missing some terms, which caused issues. Furthermore, my scene had baked lighting data which needed to be cleared, and also lacked a reflection probe. Top image Substance Painter viewport, bottom image Unity 5.6. I'm using a custom shader to pack the Occlusion, Roughness, and Metallic channels… -
Any suggestions on quality tutorials on or how to go about learning Substance Designer?
Hi there, I am at the point in my career where I have to teach myself a ton of the skills that I didn't quite get to work on while going through school. Substance Designer is the main one. I know the basics but I feel like my main problem is taking those basics and turning them into a realistic looking material. Does… -
[HELP] Curve Node substitute/ work around for Substance Designer 5.6.2
Hi everyone! As the title of the post suggests, I am looking for a substitue for the curve node in Substance Designer 5.6.2 (Which is the version that I am currently using). I am trying to follow along with Allegorithmic's new "Aged Wood Planks" tutorial, and to create the nails, they use the "Curve" node which I cannot… -
Emissive map from Substance Painter shows up incorrectly in Marmoset *SOLVED*
Hi everyone, I set up an emissive channel for my phone box model in Substance Painter. As you can see from the attachment, the text 'TELEPHONE' is cut out of it and it is not supposed to light up. Marmoset, however, activates emissive even in those parts where it's not supposed to happen. Any help or advice is much… -
Re: Algorythmic Substance Painter and Designer
I bought Designer several years ago. Now it's even not installed on my pc although I do use hi-res texture templates i did there all the time. Concrete and rusted/painted metal mostly. Nodes are too tedious to do and not that streamlined comparing with Fusion for example. To make your own unique noises you would need to go… -
Brutalism Study (Substance & Lighting)
Hi everyone, I'm actually working on a personal project called "Brutalism Study". With this project I want to reproduce some materials and the very pure lighting I always see in the Brutalist architectural style. For those who don't know what is Brutalist architecture, here are some exemples: Pinterest link for more…
