We have introduced two new panels to help you to get started with Designer:įirst, the Welcome panel – displayed the first time you launch Designer – offers a global overview of the software and its role in the Substance 3D ecosystem. You can add your own templates or select a default one, then directly enter the name of your graph and select the package which the graph will be added to. The New Substance model graph window is now also available for Substance model graphs. This version brings some new nodes dedicated to curve edition: Reverse curve swaps the two extremities of a curve, Curve subdivide adds more vertices on segments according to two methods, Smoothing curvesmooths out all angles on a 2D curve and finally Offset curve inflates or deflates a 2D curve, as shown below. This mechanism already available for Substance compositing graphs is now extended to Substance model graphs, using, of course, the same syntax. With Visible If, you can add conditions to parameter visibility, keeping a clean and functional UI. For example a slider only showing when a button is turned on. When exposing parameters, you may want to hide or show parameters based on the status of other parameters. Other improvements for Substance model graphs Thanks to subgraphs and exposed parameters, you can create complexe assets and apply infinite variations as demonstrated in the illustration below. When you right click on an instance node, you can of course access its referenced subgraph in order to view or edit it. You now have the possibility to have one or more outputs in your graph.Įach output will correspond to an output pin when your graph will be instantiated in another graph. We have also introduced the concept of output nodes for Substance model graphs, such as Output scene. This is now possible also for Substance model graphs: just drag & drop your subgraph from the Explorer to your main graph to use it as an instance node. If you are used to creating graphs, you want to be able to make subgraphs (or graph instances) in order to reuse your work, make graphs less cluttered and be more efficient.
Major features Support of Graph Instances in Substance model graphs This version also introduces two new panels ( Welcome and What's New) to improve user onboarding, and some other minor features or bug fixes described below. Substance 3D Designer 12.3 brings Substance model graphs to a new level with the support of subgraphs (or graph instances), plus the ' Visible if' control for exposed parameters and some new nodes dedicated to curves edition.
