What do you like best about Adobe Substance 3D Painter?

I love the layers and edge detection that allow for great material effects that export directly to programs like Maya and real time engines that allow for PBR shaders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Substance 3D Painter?

It needs a fairly robust machine to allow for multi-layered files in 4k or larger. Not a big deal because of its non-destructive resolution adjustment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Adobe Substance 3D Painter:

make sure you use UV mapping that separates any surface with a relative angle in excess of 90 degrees to ensure a clean edge detection. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Adobe Substance 3D Painter solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using it to create realistic surfaces for using in renders and real-time environments and primarily exporting it to PBR rough metallic workflows. The edge detection is also amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Adobe Substance 3D Painter?

Very user friendly, short learning curve.

Making AAA quality texturing feels natural and in some ways, very exciting. Viewport is very responsible and powered by a good PBR render. It's fairly easy to texture most subjects with superior attention to detail by using its physic-based brushes, decals and the clever masking workflow. Also has a ton of export-presets for easy integration into your render engine of choice, from vray to renderman.

It also integrates very well with Substance Designer, being able to create your own smart brushes to share with the team is very cool. There's room for some crazy workflows if you know enough Python, since it has a decent API.

The Substance Team updates their software constantly, with major features being implemented every year, for the price it's an absolutely no-brainer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Substance 3D Painter?

Some features are confusing at first, and performance isn't that optimized for VFX grade work, but overall it's a very solid package with loads of potential going forward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Adobe Substance 3D Painter:

If you work with games (or want to), that's the way to go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Adobe Substance 3D Painter solving and how is that benefiting you?

Substance Painter made texturing a lot more intuitive and effortless, it does feel like creating art, opposed to dealing with a machine and solving technical problems.

It made my work a lot more fun and exciting, you can actually enjoy the process and have fun doing it, it feels almost like playing a videogame at times, since it flows so natural and intuitively.

Texturing PBR assets used to be a major pain, dealing with multiple maps that are supposed to be linked together, Substance Painter streamlined all that process with a great consistent workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Adobe Substance 3D Painter?

There are so many ways to create with this software and being able to import resources stretches this even further. I love the freedom and the fact you can see a 3D version of your assets with your work directly on them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Substance 3D Painter?

The one thing that has been an issue for me in the past is the fact you can’t paint across UDIM tiles. This gives the appearance of seams and makes it more difficult to paint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Adobe Substance 3D Painter:

Give it a go, you will be surprised at just how much you can create with it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Adobe Substance 3D Painter solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have had massive benefits within substance, being able to correct textures and view them as you work. It is a super easy interface to use and has features that are similar to other software. It is a non destructive workflow which means you can easily correct issues without destroying your work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
