Great tutorial! You have a good voice and clear diction and a good flow throughout the tutorial. There are not that many tutorials for Mixer out there and you could be one of the pioneers to continue this into a regular course, especially when they release the full-on 3D painting version. I expect that version will be feature-rich with content and techniques for future tutorials.
PukkaFactor Thank you very much for your kind words. They mean so much to me as a growing creator! I will definitely continue to follow the development of Quixel Mixer. Future tutorials could definitely be happening on this topic down the line!
@@DanielKrafft I will look forward to them...subscribed!
@@DanielKrafft Here's a guy who's really come a long way with his tutorial channel for Blender 2.8. He's recently passed the 100k sub mark. His tutorial format is excellent. Check out his channel for inspiration.

Hey, I know it's been a year but thank you for this man.
I just discovered Quixel, I'm looking forward to using this! Thank you!!
How’s it going?
Amazing, you really saved my life! I was needing this
It's perfect, I'm just starting. I saw the title and thought, yes lol
Great Video, thank you so much!! I've learned a lot so quickly!!
wow I never even heard of quixel before! it looks really good, I don't need it for now as a beginner, but I'll save this
thanks!
Thank you for the basics my dude!
Oscar Hernandez no problem! Thanks for stopping by. Let me know if you ever need something 3d related
@@DanielKrafft Hey daniel, Yes! please make blender to ue5, or maya to ue5 workflows;
Rendering scenes un UE5 having utmost cinematic quality, Cinematics un UE5
I've been searching for this purpose in whole Internet but I didn't find proper tutorials on them!
I'm starting up to learn cinematics and passionate about making them, I need to understand basic workflow of 3D softwares like blender, Maya to Unreal so that renders can be faster. Thanks hope you'll cover them up
i want this to be a BEACH with a MANHOLE - a mysterious one!
great vid mate, subbed
Great video title choice. I clicked right away.
Thank you for watching this video everyone please let me know if there is demand for any further tutorials on this topic
Hello. I have a problem with exporting to library button in mixer 2020. It's simply greyed out, and I cannot use it anyhow. I assigned some newly created folder on my hard drive as local library path in mixer and bridge. But it still doesn't seem to get that button working.. how to fix it?
U "hearted" your own comment
NICE
@@jonasgenova rip you did not understand (or at least i think) but this not his account
Do I need to create UV mapping in order to paint my model, or can I just drop the model and start painting it without any UVs?
How do you paint with textures, mentioned but not shown? thanks
Thanks a lot, That was exactly I was looking for to get a foot into Mixer.
This will be good for people who want to make their own Minecraft PBR resource pack!
Great tutorial Daniel!
good laud this is fucking unbelievably game change
I love how this guy rubs on the Megascans being free for UE devs
Ironically, I'm more interested in this than Minecraft... 😅
Thank You for this Great Tutorial!
Please make a tutorial for stylized textures
Great video btw
It’s not very good for that
Thank you! it helped me a lot!
Thank uuuuu so much 🙏🙏🙏🙏
More of these please!!!!
We'll see! I really like Mixer, I'll just have to look into it deeper. When I'm able to move beyond 1 upload/week I'm sure it will pop up again
I'm a bit late to the party, but I'm currently making the transition from substance to mixer, so any future mixer videos for me would be great.
Fool
Substance is WACK and has an unnecessary price tag + cloud subscription… Blender / Mixer / UE5 is the master combo & works seamlessly together
@@SadTown99 $150 is not unreasonable for what it gives you. Mixer is not product ready and lacks many many features to make it ready. Mixel tries to act like substance, designer and alchemist. While giving a lot of variety it doesn’t excel at any of those three.
This is brilliant
big like thank you for this simple tut
this was great .. thank u man
Mohamed Nopy Thank you very much!
Thanks, Life saver
No prob
Thank you bro!
You’re welcome!
really helpful man
Looks Good
Hello, super new to this. Can I bring any PBR material, image, or homemade decal png into Quixel Mixer, or is it strictly for Quixel assets?
I find UV unwrapping parts correctly for Quixel the hardest. Not once have I managed to import a custom model correctly... A tutorial would be very nice
Thank you!!
Just curious, do you change any settings to make it high resolution in the viewport? It looks like a 500 or less pixel resolution in my viewport and the settings are at 2K
It's good, Thank you!
Wonderful tutorial. You get a sub from me and lots of love, respect and affection.
please, if you know, for what used substance designer, what different between quixel mixer and substance designer? i just new in this sphere and i don't understand what for what used
@@DanielKrafft thank you bro) Happy New Year)
Thanks!
please do some export setting tutorial what a wonderful tool.
I'll see if I can add that into the schedule. Thank you for your suggestion
Hello, do you know why my displacement map is just white, once exported? Pleaseeeeeee reply back!!!
I added a paint layer, have all the channels selected but only displacement is affeted.. why?
Have you used Substance Painter? Is it worth buying over Quixel mixer? Which is easier? Which is more robust?
Can I use Luma masks and colored ID maps like in Substance Painter?
Hirk DeKnirk Hey, I don’t think that’s available right now. That being said, Quixel is updating Mixer pretty heavily this next year. Currently its main purpose is to supplement Quixel Megascans not replace Substance. They’re going to have to introduce those tools soon though. They’re getting lots of attention
It takes while, but I finally find some good turorial. Thx
God job!
Hey daniel hope you're doing well, Please make blender to ue5, or maya to ue5 workflows;
Rendering scenes un UE5 having utmost cinematic quality, Cinematics un UE5
I've been searching for this purpose in whole Internet but I didn't find proper tutorials on them!
I'm starting up to learn cinematics and passionate about making them, I need to understand basic workflow of 3D softwares like blender, Maya to Unreal so that renders can be faster. Thanks hope you'll cover them up
But...so...Mixer is only really really useful when you have the epic games subscription right? Cause aside from that you only have the 50 or so base materials and no decals
Well the megascans subscription is free with Unreal fortunately, but yep I've only ever used it for that
@@DanielKrafft Bummer, I dont have Unreal and dont plan on using it soon, but I guess its still better than nothing since I also dont have Substance
Noob question - can this be implemented into blender workflow? :D or this is unreal only type of thing?
Timur Dzhambinov Well based on the license, you can use it in blender as long as the main final product is an unreal project. Interpret that how you will (:
@@DanielKrafft got it) I'm guessing they won't be able to check my personal work though :)
@@timur7381 I personally asked them on their forums, and they replied this: 'Mixer is totally free for non-commercial and commercial projects.' So as long as you dont use megascans you are good to go.
@@phosphorus5136 cool! Im curious to poke this thing)
I did not have PBR (only in Viewport. When I open an new prject there is PBR Metalness. Press 1 on keyborad the same. All shortcuts works fine...except 1
Is there pressure sensitivity features while spray painting?
If I have Epic game account and sing in Mixer then the texter I made can I use in Blender??
I suppose you can, but they say you're only "supposed" to use it if the final product is in Unreal.
@@DanielKrafft I did my research and it turns out that you can use it for Blender and they give you even a free addon in the Bridge file. You just need to have Epic account and install the addon enable the live link. 👍 And thanks for the video it was amazing
Ke'o 17 Oh awesome! Thanks for watchin mate 👍
I suppose that this is a loophole where you're "supposed" to bring work from mixer into blender, to then export it to Unreal.
However, you can probably just stop at the blender stage...
The legality of this practice is still in question though
to me it says: application has been blocked from accessing graphics hardware" ....what does it mean? my graphic card does not support quixel mixer ?
How can you have time to learn so many 3D software?
It is possible to export the texture as jpg image ? I try to export the textures map but it doesnt export anything.
Mixer is not working in mine .It just froze at adding layers..any clue ?
My mixer locks up when I create a new mix any fix?
Are we not gonna say anything about why there is a manhole on the beach?
It's LA city centre in 30 years
does Quixel Mixer compatible with Unity or.... ?
When I placed the mega scan it only showed some bumps and the color didn't change. Can you help?
Nevermind. I fixed it. Had to turn off the layer below. Thanks by the way for the video!
I'm working with version 2020.1.4 ... how come mine doesnt look like yours? is it because it's a beta? everything I do just makes my thing look flat ...
Oh I see, preview displacement
You can't use this offline?
my material looks black seems like no lights
Great tuorial but you didn't explain 3 important steps.1. How to export aand wher to export 2. How to apply to you're object/mesh in your 3D app of choice ( I use Blender)..and 3. How to texture a 3D Model
I don'y have any material in Decal layer.
How come no one talks about how everything is in greyscale when you start up the program? Is this some sort of gatekeeping?
i cant rotate how do I rotate
Apparently the author does like it if anyone says that part of his tutorial is out of date. My previous comment was deleted without any suggestions or comments.
Cool and how you get this to UE4
Check out my first video about bridge to megascans. Next, use "Export to bridge" in Mixer. The process is seamless
What if I want to build a mountain?
Use World Creator
Great tutorial but Mixer is not consistent yet, I used the same materials, the same numbers and the results are WAY too different from your results, my results are still nice looking but it feels random, and that's not good. Having said that, IT DOES looks like a very promising tool! A few mores updates will do it!
Is it just me or does that guy in the thumbnail remind you of Carl from Phineas and Ferb
Free... Until Epic bought out Quixel and now, per their EULA, MegaScan assets are only for use with UE4
Wait. I thought that mixer is free to use, as said in their website "forever" for any kind of use, not just UE. The thing that's changed since Epic bought Quixel was that megascans became free to use for UE4 users, but still can be used outside of UE as long as they create a premium account not affiliated with UE.
I can’t download it?
It's a nice guide but not for the absolutely complete beginner, it doesn't tell you how to navigate your scene!
*tries left and right mouse button* * nothing happens*
*tries middle button* * pans and zooms*
*now wonders how to rotate the scene*
*gives up and goes to google*
he tells you how to do all that stuff in the video
@@jakejack826 I can't be bothered with mixer anymore, I used it for 5 months and it was so frustrating using it. I switched to Substance
@@tylerdaniels9000 I'm getting a similar feeling after using it for about a month lmao
I wanted to ask a question, but I see that you don't reply to many other comments, so... better not asking here :(
Let's go to some fancy Ai, because Humans are crap for communication.
thanks, OMG this is a HUGE install and really taxs your system. I've i7 12core 64RAM 3 GPU card and load times, refresh and UI interaction is SLOWWWWWWW. Oh well sadly looks like more and more substance is the choice. I hate abode and subscriptions.
Pretty useless this program seems to me, as the brush doesnt even paint where i click, it paints somewhere else. Maybe a bug, as this is no longer developed....
Know any decent free alternatives?
@genericgymvlogsph9739 no. Would also like to get something useful in 2024.
When I see that you doesn't disable the dumb windows search bar, it proofs me that you are not very skilled with your computer^^.
The search is 1. very bad and 2. included into your windows start, just write.
You're doing a lot of "doing" without explaining, and you dont have key press display on...
I have no clue what you did in the beginning when you selected Thai wet sand footprints(which you didnt name properly)
You jus said lets do this one, then you were on the main screen with the plain again
The login for this is absolutely infuriating. Not only can't I just log in through the browser the authentication is a buggy and unresponsive mess.
