100% - It was so nice to find a simple explanation without someone trying to act cool - some stupid joke and then just show you common sense stuff. This was a welcome change.
This is definitely what you call tutorial for beginner. Every step is clear. You make things easy, to understand and to follow step by step. Thank you so much!
You can be a very good teacher. Most if not all substance tutorial overwhelm you with alot of unnecessary things and terms and make if scary even to try and learn painter. Thanks for this.
Hello Sir, this is very helpful and solved the problem. I had some trouble with the bake mesh map, and finally, I found your tutorial. Thank you so much!
Thank you! Absolutely legendary tutorial about blender to substance painter and back. I learned a lot from this video and thank you for the way you presented the information. I'm going to check out your other videos because you're the type of teacher that this community needs without all the extra nonsense that every other tutorial has. Thanks again and I hope you continue teaching your methods in blender and substance painter, it would make the learning journey a lot smoother for many of us who are tired of the videos where they just speed through everything and just try selling their course or affiliate product links. This was a breath of fresh air and I spent an entire day trying to understand how to do basically everything you've covered here and this video was the only one I seen that covers everything you need to know. Sorry for the essay, I just wish I watched this video first before wasting all that time lol
And THAT sums up exactly why I am doing this, my friend. I don't have any special knowledge to pass on but I started making videos like this, especially the longer series with multiple parts, because I found mostly time-lapse videos and felt there could be a need for something that was slower and explained. That doesn't mean I know anything special, only that I believe you and the others deserve somebody who is willing to show the process and make mistakes and do stuff wrong and all of that. But keep it real and explain and hopefully inspire others to do it too and, of course, to do it better than me. So thanks for getting my purpose and for the very generous comment.
Thank you, A perfect tutorial for a SP newbie like me，I used to texturing my models in blender，and i find it sometimes can be a bit annoying in terms of baking and mixing different textures, But in SP, many minor issues can be solved much quicker
Hey thats great! I've done a lot of simple substance painter videos lately so if you see any textured objects in recent thumbnails, it's probably a SP video.
Ive watched 1000000's of tutorial videos and your style is the best, its a real skill to explain complicated things in a simple and understandable way which you do extremely well - Thank you Sir 🙏🏽
Thank you for this nice explanation, I've finally decided to learn substance painter and this was a fantastic explanation! not too long not too short, and it gets you ready to start texturing stuff with the program.
Good stuff. I have many videos now where I use SP to texture. If you watch any of the newer videos where I mention SP in thr title or you see a textured model in thr thumbnail. Good luck.
this tutorial is very helpfull. I can model in blender, but i want to make my own material in substance painter. Now i know how to import my model to substance painter and put my material again to blender. Thanks a lot. 😄
Quick tip here, you dont need to create a new project in substance painter if the uvs dont work, just go to edit, and then project configuration and reselect your model (.obj .fbx etc.) With the new unwrap and its done, btw, if you already textured one part and the uvs are fixed you need to re texture that part (but is better instead to re texturing the whole model) sorry for my english, im from México, greetings and keep the good work, sir.
Yes! I just did the spyglass modeling and will do the magnifying glass modeling later today. Then I will texture both in substance painter. Later, I will do more with substance painter.
Cool! Thanks for that. Yes, I have subdivision surface on the handle and around the glass, if I remember correctly. I often don't apply the modifiers. I just do the UV with the modifier still active (not always the best way) and export it to SP with the modifier. Many people apply the modifiers before UV and definitely before SP. Just see what works best for you, I guess.
@@zerobio thank you so much for responding. I can’t figure out a way to texture with a solidify modifier I would usually apply it before SP. but I was just curious to know if there is a way to texture with a solidify without getting the stretching
You could do that. You could build the wall section with the window in it and then snap the sections together in a modular fashion. Hope you find a good method. Let me know if you want to talk about it.
Hey, amazing tutorial! One thing that you did incorrectly though is that when you already did the UV Unwrapping in Blender, upon creating a new project in Substance you should untick the option that says "Auto-unwrap". That way you will actually be using the UV from Blender and not the auto-generated ones that Substance does, they tend to be a bit funky.
Thanks. I'm pretty sure I was using the Blender UVs. Otherwise, I would see a progress bar showing SP unwrapping, unless it went super fast. But I do know what you mean.
Great! Hope it is useful. At the time you indicated, I marked seams, one near the top and one near the bottom going around the object. Then I added a seam connecting those seams (ie. vertically) and then unwrapped. Hope that is what you needed. Let me know if you need to talk more about this and good luck.
Thanks. I would have to look and see if I still have this model. If you like, email me at kimmelelliott@gmail.com and I will send you either the blend file or fbx if I can find it.
Thanks buddy, no need, just completed your tutorial on making it. Fantastic instruction as usual. It also opened up a great way to make many other assets and props. Hi from Scotland…
Love it , easy to follow tutorial . Thank you! I'm very new to Blender and this my second time using Substance Painter, in substance painter I used a corroded smart asset material when I brought it into Blender everything looks fine but there is no depth to the pitting and decay. Any suggestions to what I have done wrong? Keep up the great tuts they really are of terrific assistance to a new traveller in the Blender universe:)
Awesome! Good luck with blender and substance painter. As for the depth, it's probably because you need to flip the green channel or the normal map. If you could look this up on the internet you may find examples. However, I've discussed this in a couple of videos, let me see if I can find which ones. That should solve your problem. Hang on a while and I will get back to you.
Bob, have a look at this image and pay attention to the normal map and how it is connected. You need the separate RGB node, combine RGB node, and invert node. If you can't find those, use the spacebar in Blender (in shader editor) and search for them. If you have everything connected right, you should get the correct result. cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/903847891288866836/1033824962554900491/unknown.png
@@zerobio Thank you for your informative reply. To the best of my abilities I followed your recommendations but it did not seem to change my result. I am using a very simple model, a kind of a boulder I quickly modelled in Blender, it was just to see how the Substance Painter process worked. It may be likely that my model is crap and my UV unwrap as well. I will try it with a Suzanne next and familiarize myself a bit more with Substance Painter and see what happens. Once again thank you for your assistance and channel!
Can you tell me the information on the addon that shows the number of broken vertices, square meshes, and triangle meshes at the top of the Blender interface?
Thanks a lot Elliott!! At last a tutorial explaining the workflow Blender/Substance that is understandable and easy. I've been almost a years with it for nothing. Just a question...Even I add a material in blender, when baking maps in Substance, all of them appear except the color ID..??
@@rachael418 it depends on the texture. It will be stretched somewhat if it is not applied bit that may not be noticeable. If you leave it on but not applied, you will see in SP how it looks and decide for yourself.

Hey, good video indeed. How would you handle multiple same objects like windows on a building.. Do one and then copy and paste it in Blender?
You could do that. You could build the wall section with the window in it and then snap the sections together in a modular fashion. Hope you find a good method. Let me know if you want to talk about it.

Awesome! Good luck with blender and substance painter. As for the depth, it's probably because you need to flip the green channel or the normal map.

If you can't find those, use the spacebar in Blender (in shader editor) and search for them. If you have everything connected right, you should get the correct result.

Do subdivision surface modifiers need to be applied before uv unwrapping?
