Substance Designer Project 3 Blog [Part 3]

Substance Designer Tutorial:


In Chapter 5, Creating the Color Map I will be working on the following:
Using the Gradient Node:
First I will be using a BnW Spots 2, Moisture Noise, and a Blend Node. After that I will connect them and change the blending mode to overlay. (Pictures will be shown below/ Step-by-step?).

How did I get the Color? I used a reference picture from the tutorial.


Creating Large Color Variations:

For this part I will first put the output of the Gradient Map node into the Base Color Node. Then delete the Uniform color because It isn't needed anymore.
Ran into a little problem I think. It looks a bit different in the tutorial video.



 Creating the Mortar & Additional Detail:
First I will have to duplicate the Gradient Map above that's connected to the Blend Node. Then I will create a Blend node and place the duplicated gradient to the foreground of the blend. After that I will plug in the previous Blend Node to the Background of the new one. (Steps will be shown In pictures).
Then I will connect the output of the Slope Blur Output all the way to the blend node opacity.
Once I picked the Color I will plug in the blend output to the Base Color.
Next, I will use a Grunge Map 013, blend node, and a uniform color. 
From here I will adjust it and add a dust color. Finally the end result below.

Creating the Roughness Map:

For this part I will be working on the roughness map so I will have to start off with blend node and I will also have to pick one of the previous blend nodes (Picture).

Creating Edge Detail Roughness:
For this part I will start with a Curvature Node, Curvature Smooth Node, and a Normal Node. 


After this I only needed the Curvature Smooth instead of the other one and then I added in a Levels Node.
Then I will create another Blend Node.

The End Result of this part and the end of Chapter 5
A lot more work has been done to add Color and Roughness into the material. This is how the graph looks like below.

Substance Painter Fundamentals: For Chapter 4, Using Masks, I will be working on the following: Using Masks: For the beginning of this part I will be creating folders for my materials and then create a mark for the color selection. Back in chapter two I was not able to bake a map for the id map, but hopefully in the next part it says I should be able to create one by painting? Mask by Painting: For this part I will be creating a Fill Layer first then adding a white mask. When I paint in a mask I will be painting in grayscale maps so if I was painting white I painted black. (Picture Below) The color can still be adjusted in the grayscale uniform color. The video will also talk about working the other way.   It will also show how I can paint using the symmetrical tool ( If the Mesh is Symmetrical only). Mask by Polygon: For this part I am adding a new fill layer and adding a grunge012 bitmap I will also be working with smart mask in painter. First I will creat...

Substance Designer Fundamentals Tutorial: For the first chapter of the tutorial, it is just a Course Overview of Substance Designer Fundamentals. So after the first video the next chapter will begin and talk about: In Chapter 2 Getting Started and Graph Set Up, it will talk about the following: How to Create a New Substance Graph: There are numerous ways of creating a new graph in designer and each one works with different identifiers. Though some have different outputs that support base color, defuse, normal, metallic, etc. Notes: By default Absolute is set and it will give a Fixed Resolution Relative To Parent will give a Dynamic Resolution Recommended Width & Height should be 2048px & 2048px with a Format of 16 bits per channel. Navigating the Viewports:  MMB = Pan Scroll MMB = Zoom Ctrl + RC = Pan Each one works the same in the Graph View, 3D View, and 2D View There are different options when viewing the Geometry in 3D View Adding and Hooking up Nod...
