Artikel Character, Artikel Material, Artikel Modeling, Artikel Substance Painter,

[ #Character #Material ] The new Character Creator 2.0 (cc2),which is an add-on tool for iClone comes with the ability to create PBR shaders, allowing users to import PBR textures created with other 3D paint tools like Substance Painter, 3D Coat, or Quixel. Users can now export their Character Creator assets to iClone 7, Unreal, Unity, or Sketchfab with the same PBR visual quality. A variety of material channels that work in sync with image based lighting options result in a more accurate interaction between light and surfaces.
Character Creator previously only provided a single light source but the new 2.0 update now allows users to customise their IBL environment in, while syncing the sky map to their IBL light with natural DOF effects and colour tone.

Allegorithmic announces Substance Painter

Artikel Allegorithmic, Artikel Featured, Artikel Game, Artikel Substance Painter, Artikel Texturing,
Allegorithmic has posted a video showing a Substance Painter - a new texturing tool for games artists that combines the power of its procedural texturing package, Substance Designer, with the 3D painting capabilities of an app like Mari

According to CG Channel Substance Painter’s system of particle brushes enables users to paint procedural effects like dirt, rust and surface wear directly onto a model which you can see in the video below.

>> See Also: Substance Designer Bakers tutorial

Key Features in Substance Painter include:

-3D + 2D: Substance Painter is a true 3D painter that can also be used as a dedicated 2D tool, notably through the automatic tiling and UV islands influence features.
-Multi-Channel: With Substance Painter, artists can paint a full material (with multiple channels/maps) in one stroke. As they are painting, they have Diffuse, Albedo, Normal, Specular, Roughness, Metallic (and more) options at their disposal.
-Non-Destructive: Every action is recorded by Substance Painter, giving artists the option to backtrack and test out new creative choices. For instance, now an artist can paint their character with a particular skin type and then non-destructively cycle through new skin materials later if they have a different idea.
-Parametric Brushes: Substance Painter’s parametric brushes automatically adapt to the underlying mesh, so if skin pores and wrinkles are added they are adapted to the geometry and properties of the mesh.
