If you stop the video before he set each blend mode on the blend nodes, after he says what he is planning to do, you actually have yourself a nice quiz to test your knowledge :D Also, the modeling analogy to boolean operations finally made click on me on how to utilize blending modes for height map creation. Also, I finally understood how to break up mask transitions, something I always struggled with in designer. AddSub is ma man !!!

[@drawmore8721]

AddSub is goated after watching this for sure.

03:46 What.. I've been using designer for quite a while and didn't knew that one can swap inputs by pressing X 🤯

[@harrysanders818]

Until I watched this series, I think I did not realize what a crucial part the blend modes play in Substance Designer, especially for heightmap creation. I always thought that blend modes would be more of a cosmetic thing, but in Designer, they really play an important role when creating your basic height, normal and AO information. This really closed a gap of knowledge for me. Thanks very much. You don't come across such information from watching graph creation videos alone I guess. At least it never clicked for me the way it did now.

3 minutes in the video and i have the answer to my biggest issue in designer ... so happy this video showed up in my recommendations !

This video is INCREDIBLY helpful!

Thanks for these very helpful insights. At 13:55 there was an irritating mistake in the explanation, I believe. When he starts to talk about modulating the roughness channel, when he says "an excellent way to use ADD/SUB..", he meant to say "..an excellent way to use OVERLAY". overlay is then what is shown for modulating roughness.

Hi Christian, thanks for the reply. You are right, I misspoke and failed to catch that one. I can't add any more cards to the video (the limit is 5), so I corrected it in the description. I hope things are clear apart from that little error.

[@sturm3d]

@@Substance3D yes, pretty clear - no biggie. just thought i would mention it.

[@artur2133]

When I started reading your comment I was really expecting a major mistake... This level of nitpicking is just unhealthy lol

[@nathankable4507]
