Substance plugin for mobile

[wobbiso]

Support for mobile has been in the pipeline for ~3-4 years now, but I haven't seen an update to the topic for about a year. Is progress actually being made, is it being delayed, or is it because of mobile hardware limitations? If it's hardware limitations, then please consider publishing a simpler plugin so artists can still at least adjust material parameters inside the editor.

HI,

I'm very sorry but we still don't have an ETA to share. I know that is very frustrating and I apologize. Honestly the delay is coming down to a priority issue as we have many requests in the log that are larger ticket items. Again, I know that is not a great straightforward answer and I apologize for not having more I can share.

Cheers,
Wes

That's quite alright; priorities in the pipeline is a perfectly legitimate reason. I'm honestly just glad to get an update on the feature, thanks.

Hi @notbad2142,
The plugin currently does not support mobile devices. It is a feature we have to support sooner rather than later but we currently do not have a timeframe for when it will be available so for the time being, you will have to bake and import.

Thanks for the answer.

You should fix the substance plugin in the UE 4 marketplace so supported platforms doesn't say that it supports mobile so people wouldn't have to ask if mobile is supported seeing as it doesn't support mobile yet.
