Superb tutorial for the beginner. It's the only one I've found that lays out clearly the basic concepts involved in Painter. It goes straight in with the lesson without a chummy, time-wasting intro, and ....no background beat-noise! I complained to Allegorithmic some time ago that NONE of their videos were properly targeted at beginners. Five stars, or whatever is the maximum! Thank you!
Best Layers and Masks tutorial. I like the way you start very simple and build up. Most tutorials on the same topic start of with tons of layers and it is hard to see what order they were created. nuff said ✨👌👍✨
Can you explain why some layer below others still affects some channels if every channel is using the normal blend mode? (is it the internal properties of a substance made with substance designer?)
Thanks, nice and quick introduction! I'm wondering can you stack multiple generated masks onto one layer/material or do you have to duplicate the material each time? Like if I want both a edge wear generator and a standard noise applied to an object to create rust, do I need to duplicate the rust material so I have two versions, each with it's own mask generator?
I don't know the exact answer to this, but I know I recently wanted to put both a mask with an "add paint" effect and also a mask that was only affecting certain UV shells with the polygon fill: The easiest way I found to do this was to just put the whole fill layer into a folder, and then have one mask applied to the layer directly and one mask applied to the folder. Maybe that would work in your case too? Just thought I'd share c:
Hello and thanks for the tutorial. I cannot seem to get this to work in the latest version. Adding the things you add has basically in each step another behavior from yours. Already the very first step, adding the Iron looks different for me. I have brushed metal like strokes in it. going to the top- Have to change to triplanar projection to have it like you. Rust layer seems to work same as yours- But then adding the red layer with blackmas and generator with Metal Edge Wear does absolutely nothing for me either. What could that be? Ive tried so many things now but it wont work. Like trying different uvunwrap methods, via blender and via Substance Painter and other things, no luck. Just to be sure, i think i did exactly like you, being: - add Shiny Iron material - add Rust fill layer - add blackmask to Rustlayer, with generator Dripping Rust - add red fillayer with blackmask and generator Metal Edges Nothing changes it, it will not look like yours in any way. Cant get the edges to get taken into account, that Metal Edges generator effects the whole material, not only the edges, no matter what ive set it to. Any idea why?
Thanks alot dude.I just do not know why but when i was experimenting on this with simple cube my edges were not enough gray grunged/rusted.There was just a tiny sharp line of gray white color on the edges.It was not like your rust here on the edges of your model.How to increase the rust level or i have to do it manually by painting it?
Great tutorial, very clear explanation! However, my brush tool does not work, it shows that I select a brush, I can see the opacity is on or off in the viewport because it shows where my mouse is and in the small display of the brush settings, I can see I have no alpha selected, or that the flow is not set to 0. But as soon as I start painting nothing happens, not on a mask with a paint effector, not on a new layer with no effector or mask, just nothing. Apparently nobody else is having this issue on google. Do you have any idea?
Thanks for this video. Out of interest, why does your regular layer automatically generate that green base colour? is that a preference you've set? Cheers!
@@Pixelfondue it’s the marks on all the black to white slider, yours look like a ruler but mine is just a grey scale bar. It’s probably like you said, it’s old UI from substance.
Is there a way to add a seperate colour or materials to the alpha u painted on the surface ? For example if I paint an alpha and want a separate material over it rather than the material of the object I added the alpha on, what should I do ? Would really appreciate a solution
One thing you can do is to create a layer, add a black mask to it and then add a paint effect. Use your alpha to paint in that effect layer. Now you can copy and paste that effect layer to your new layer with your separate color/material on it and use that paint layer as a mask on another black mask.
Thank you So much for this Video...I have watch a lot of Video's on Substance painter and this one is the one that REALLY Hit home for me ... I thought for sure I was one of the Most Dumb's persons I am Ambidextrous and I don't learn the same as others .your video makes sense to me . Now I am able make my Models look sharp and nice ... do you have any other Video's >? Thanks again so much Jody
how do i put my windows like yours? they all getting stacked cant create that 2nd tab on the right where you have texture set and properties, im using substance 2018 tho
I'm with pixel fondue and made the video but responding with my personal account- Generally, materials are created in whatever program you use before you send it to painter- so if you have multiple objects with their own material assignments, those should come through to painter. Within painter itself, if you have multiple objects, you can also use Masks to assign different materials to each object.
hey Sir - can you help me, when i start substance painter and start paining, it crash at very first click on the OBJ,...i also tried a sample from the software called Toad, bu after 3 strokes it keeps crashing ?!??! my specs are : rtx 2070 super, 9 3900x, x570 ultra, 32 GB RAM, win 10 64 bit. thanks
Hi Lambert. Did you bake out your maps? You will need to bake your maps to see the different layering type effects. To get weathering effects between layers, Substance needs a curvature map to tell it where the edges of the object are. Baking should be one of the first things you do when you get into Painter.
As a beginner with substance this is insanely helpful. Thanks !
Your explanation is very straightforward and to the point unlike other who just shout their knowledge.
Extremely well done tutorial. Perfect narration speed with a focused tutorial. Very rare on TH-cam.
Thanks for the super simple to understand tutorial this basically summarises 1-2 hour videos of substance painter into less than 15 minutes
Glad you enjoyed it!
So far the best Layers and Masks tutorial I have watched. Super help-ful. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
I like that this is a no nonsense tutorial, helpful info and no beating around the bush too much. Covers some great essentials.
One of the best tutorial I've ever seen. Thank you so much

cheers, one of the most useful tutorials on the subject :)
INCREDIBLE IM NEW TO SUBSTANCE LEARNED ALOT FROM THIS VIDEO KEEP IT UP.
polygon fill saved my life, Very helpfull
Great quick tut
Do you have any more Video's on Substance Painter ?Thanks again ... Awesome video
Thank you so much 4 this great tutorial!
You are so welcome!
perfect tutorial thanks man
Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude that HELPED A LOT. Thank you very much!
Glad to hear it!
absolutely amazing!
I learned alot from this. Thank you
Glad to hear it!
Such a amazing video! Very very helpful! Thank you!!
Great video! Would recommend! Thanks!
Great video!
Can you explain why some layer below others still affects some channels if every channel is using the normal blend mode? (is it the internal properties of a substance made with substance designer?)

try baking your material first

What a helpful video, you can learn more from this than a 3 hour class. ;D Thank you for the help!
Yeah, great video. Thanks!
this is what i've been looking for
Thank you, sir. It's so helpful to me
Very nice!
You are a godsend thank you for this clarification
Nice, save me hours and hours searching !!
It was really helpful, thanks!
Thanks for this video. Out of interest, why does your regular layer automatically generate that green base colour? is that a preference you've set? Cheers!
I think that was something that I had been working with previously. Normally be default, it should be a white layer with neutral values.
Great tutorial. Thanks a million!
You need more padding in UV's, you will have texture bleeding especially in mipmaps, without padding.
Yeah, help me a lot, thanks
v useful for beginners thanks man
Happy to help
yes was really helpful , Thank you .
wow, very helpful, thank you.
Thanks a lot, very nice tutorial
Very helpful.
how did you got those scale marks on the UI? Thanks for the video!
Sorry, what scale marks do you mean? This UI is from about 5 years ago so maybe its something that's changed.
@@Pixelfondue it’s the marks on all the black to white slider, yours look like a ruler but mine is just a grey scale bar. It’s probably like you said, it’s old UI from substance.
@@chuckle70 Yes, it looks like that's an old UI display feature. I don't see anything in the settings to enable them in the current version.
Very useful video. Thank you.
Much appreciated, thanks a lot :)
You're welcome!
Very helpful. Thank you!
Thank you very helpful !
very helpful! subbed :)
Thanks for the sub!
Amazing!

how do i put my windows like yours? they all getting stacked cant create that 2nd tab on the right where you have texture set and properties, im using substance 2018 tho
how do you unselect/de select when u masked?
How do you make a shiny silk material?
Thanx, mate!
You're welcome!
Great video, thank you
i have a question related to this masking... can help me please??
If more objects ,how to give multiple material?

Did you try to use fbx instead of obj ?
Very helpful!
Thank you 😍
Welcome!
why everytime i export file and open into substance. all my 3d got merge into 1 layer T_T need help
Thanks.HOW HELPFUL!
