Really need an answer to this, trying to work with Substance Designer on a small SSD for Windows is basically impossible now, the C drive fills up during the rendering process until the program crashes.

Substance Designer - Technical Support - Cached surfaces folder filling up hard drive, possible to change locations?

 on: March 12, 2018, 06:21:53 pm 

After the latest update I noticed my C drive (a small SSD used primarily for windows) was filling up rapidly. I noticed the cached_surfaces folder located in C:\Users\*\AppData\Local\Temp\Allegorithmic\Substance Designer\ folder was a whopping 11.5 gb. Is it possible to move the location of this cache directory to a drive with more space?

Not sure if it's just me, but both Share and Source are timing out when I try to open them, all other sites including the allegorithmic main page are functioning normally.

Substance Designer - Discussions - 2017.2 "Save current state as default" not working

 on: October 25, 2017, 09:02:12 pm 

I am unable to make 2017.2 retain 3D view settings. Specifically I want it to retain Tessellation over Parallax, my Tessellation Factor, and my Height Scale settings. I have saved the settings as default, and also exported the settings to a new file, linking my project 3D viewer settings to the file manually with no success. Opening the .sbsscn file shows that the information is being written correctly:

<heightmapscale>0.319999993</heightmapscale>

However Designer simply doesn't appear to be using the state file, it defaults to original settings upon each open or file reload. Help?

Substance Painter - Technical Support - Rotating smart materials

 on: August 02, 2016, 10:50:22 pm 

Hi, I'm curious as to how one rotates a procedural smart material within painter. For example, if I'm working on plank floor texture and a smart material that I apply has wood grain running perpendicular to the planks, is there not a way to rotate the smart material projection without actually manipulating the UV's? UV rotation doesn't seem to do anything, I tried setting 90 degree UV rotation on all the smart material's individual layers to no avail. Thanks!
