Substance textures~

When loading Substance textures, they do not always show up.
After messing around, I found that if I adjust the SEED Value up (off of zero) and then back down (to zero), the texture appears. Sometimes, reloading a project, Substance textures reset to white and need to have the SEED value shaken again to appear. After one re-save under a new project name, they seem to load properly.
Using Studio 8.4.38

Thanks for being Awesome.

Hi,

Could you send us a consolidated compo showing off the problem at support@smode.fr ?

(in order to consolidate a compo, do a right click on the compo tab and select 'Export and Consolidate')

Thanks,

Francis.

Sorry I'd dropped this post for a bit. I had some issues with my video card and wasn't sure if it was entirely on my end. Anyhow,
I have found that animating (or any change of) the properties of many an sbar will also 'knock it flat'.
Photo shows issue-.
(side note, when building the compo- the sbar would only show correctly on start with Animations deactivated completely, even if the animation inside controlling the sbar was Stopped and in Manual mode. When I saved it with animations activated, again with the sbar Stopped and in Manual mode, it starts up with the sbar flat. I do not know what that means, but it seems important )

Ah, thank you. I have no idea what version it was made with, I downloaded it from share.substance3d-
I thought it was inside the first zip, sorry. The file has a creation date of November ‎13, ‎2015, so pre-2018, but I will include it anyhow.

I find the issue happening with the 6 substance textures that come in the standard/material/substance directory as well. I now realize I should have used one of those in my example compo.

yes indeed it's not related to the substance version

it due to the multi layer usage and a bug in smode, I reported it to the developers.
i have no workaround for this.
I'll let you know when this have been fixed.

Hi Steffey,
Note that Last Stable Smode version 8.5.15 fix this issue.
Best regards
