I don't want proper texture painting in Blender. You can already do basic layered painting Blender if you absolutely need to and that's good enough. Blender would never beat Substance Painter anyhow.

armor paint already has the substance fee;. just needs the polish

I suppose it's better than spending days fighting Blender's shitty texture painting Blender if you really can't afford SP.

Substance output looks like puke. You can always tell when no-talent POS "artist" use smart materials.

Only if you don't know how to fine tune smart materials and make your own. My Substance textures look the same as stuff I'd painstakingly paint manually before, except even better because I get to automate the bullshit manual parts and spend more time on getting it to look the way I want.

I thought you werent supposed to "fine tune" materials at all and instead make them all in Designer.

You can make new ones in designer if you want to make it easy to use them again in the future, but adjusting existing ones is viable as well. As long as the end result is what you want, anything goes.

with games you can play them over and over. With a movie or a tv show you might watch once in your entire life. There simply is no comparison.

the only problem I have with AP is the camera controls, it can't do focus for rotation and stuff.

You just keep connecting a bunch of Mix RGB nodes on top of each other. I can't explain it in detail rn, but there are some tutorials for it. I've used it for actual texture painting in the past, but it's not good for anything serious.

Back to the question:

>What makes texture painting so hard to develop for Blender when we have Armor Paint which is open source and free and has been able to do it in some degree for years?

I see, yeah, it would need to be baked if I wanted for something outside of blender.

because it is unreasonable to expect a multi purposed program to ever be as good as a specialised one at that task, nobody paints in maya, max, c4d, modo etc. either but for some reason blender users have the expectation that it can replace dedicated texturing programs, why?

What I did was save all the images I painted into one folder and combined them in photoshop into one texture.

Anonymous at Mon, 13 Dec 2021 18:32:08 UTC No. 869510

setting up blender to texture paint is a convoluted mess right now. Work spaces should never have been introduced. switching between them is not easy since lots of settings and views are not saved between workspaces. multi windows are also not well designed with multiple workspaces. I have to keep rearranging my secondary windows when switching workspaces. Absolute mess.

I dont think you understand free, open source development. Once some has put the effort in and open sourced their work, you dont have to start from zero again. Armor Paint has already achieved a lot. Blender painting is in a pathetic state and can easily learn from it.

>nobody paints in maya, max, c4d, modo etc
Those are not open source programs. See the above.
