Hi Wes, first off I wanted to commend you on your tutorial skills. Very well done. I just started working in Substance Designer and am following your tutorial. I got to the point where we dragged the custom twig node into the dirt node area and I duplicated it and revised the shape. Couple of things went wrong after that:
1. After I inserted Shape Scatter, I couldn't connect the twig node to the pattern 1 or pattern 2? I actually had to drag a node FROM pattern 1 and 2 to the two twig nodes to get the connection to 'attach'. After doing so I could see the twig patterns in 2D window.
2. I cannot see any twigs in 3D window.... no matter what settings I change to nothing was showing up. So i exited and rebooted thinking maybe it was a graphics issue.
3. When i reopened my project, the 2D material window was blank. I clicked on material right node and got 2D window to show up, but I cannot see my material in 3D window. That is looking like default setting with nothing showing up.
I don't know why it's not showing up or why I cannot see my twigs on my surface (when 3D window was working).
This is frustrating since I'm loving this process and creating what I have so far... I wouldn't want to have to restart the project over. Any help would be appreciated.
