If you already have questions, feel free to ask in the comments here and we'll compile a list for the event. See you on Monday! Substance 3D Painter 7.3Oct 13, 2021 - Community AnnouncementsSubstance 3D Painter 7.3 is here with 2 major new features, scripting improvements and more! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/39213059/3ece34ba40b47a5af3aefe94d84b4b39fd7ded97.jpg New Color Picker This brand new color picker includes swatches, the ability to choose between float and integer (0-255) values, as well as between a linear or sRGB display. The color picker will also stay open while you are painting on the same layer, allowing you to pick new colors quickly or swap between swatches without interrupting your painting. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/39213059/9f3086da8939415ec8d704f10b977a171db04f2a.jpg This is only a first step in the color picking experience redesign and you can expect more improvements in future releases. New 3D Warp Projection Hold on to your seats, the 3D warp projection is here. This innovative projection mode allows you to wrap images, masks and materials to any 3D surface using a grid of control points. Those points can be moved in 3d space and can stick to the surface to make sure you get a perfect fit, no matter how complex your model is. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/39213059/2f01fc4633e8f8b08ce368e117aa9154cef579e1.gif Of course all of it is non destructive and you can swap out the material or change its wrapping at any time, you can layer as many of those as you'd like for an unparalleled projection based workflow, ideal for texturing faces, adding decals and all kind of situations where you need precise positioning. New cylinder projection This release adds a cylindrical projection method for fill layers and fill effects. The new projection allows to fit an image or texture around objects such as columns, pillars or more organics shapes like a character's arms. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/39213059/4f41c14cf903ae631a93056b2d497adbbe04e377.gif Drag and drop textures to a specific channel With the introduction of the Warp, the decal feature where assets can be drag and dropped from the library into the viewport while maintaining ALT had been reworked. Now, when a decal is created this way, it is no longer using the Planar projection, but the Warp projection. It is also now possible to drag and drop not only materials, but any image into the viewport. A menu will pop up allowing you to choose on which channel to apply it. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/39213059/9200a9f6a5d028de6f22c40c1b672be628321d70.gif See the Substance 3D Painter documentation and our blogpost for more details. Added: Expose 3D warp as a new projection mode Allow decal mode for Alphas, Textures and Procedurals with drag and drop in the viewport Use warp projection with decal shortcut (ALT) Transform warp as whole or per vertices Add grid points with split warp cross wise, horizontally or vertically options Dedicated menu for reset actions Option to automatically adjust tangents when moving points Dedicated menu for grid edition (size, reset, color and handle size) New keyboard shortcut to switch whole-vertices warp edition mode (SHIFT+V) Click+Ctrl allows to switch between surface tool and other too...Substance 3D Painter 7.2.3Aug 24, 2021 - Community AnnouncementsSubstance 3D Painter 7.2.3 is now available and fixes a few issues brought up to us recently.

This latest release of Painter provides a new and improved asset panel, a new default shader, an overall refresh of the UI, some much-requested performance improvements, expanded language support, and more! But first let's address the elephant in the room. There is a new icon, a new branding, a -slightly- updated app name, all this because the Substance tools have finalized their transition into the Adobe ecosystem and are now more connected to Creative Cloud. So what changes for you, as Substance users on Steam? Not much more than cosmetics actually. You will keep receiving updates at the same time as the Adobe releases, the Linux version is still going strong, Steam sales are still a thing and there is no plan to change any of that. We hope this alleviates some of the fears expressed when Allegorithmic joined Adobe, a bit more than 2 years ago now. Now about this release, we have some great stuff for you all: We have a new Asset panel making the shelf easier and faster to use with asset filters, responsive layout, faster thumbnail loading and more. A new default shader with built-in support for advanced material effects such as sheen, clear-coat, anisotropy, advanced subsurface scattering and more. Performance and quality updates with a new height-to-normal mode to generate sharper normals and much faster painting for projects with many paint strokes. New features for the automatic UVs with the ability to constrain UVs rotation and added support for generating UDIM UVs automatically. Many more improvements! As always, for the full list of new features and improvements, head over to our dedicated article. Finally, we want to emphasize that this is a first step in a new chapter for the Substance tools and the Substance team, and that we're working hard on the next step, with many, many things we're super excited about coming your way in the next year. Thank you all and happy texturing!
