Does it allow you to write your own nodes?

No clue.

Nahh, I'm not into this painter designer hybrid.
>>971721
It says c++ sdk.

Nah, I'm not talking about using an SDK.
Material Maker for instance has a built in function to turn every single node "editable" which allows you to alter its underlying GLSL code or write completely new nodes without compiling anything.

this looks interesting tb h. free license seems okay as well. should've hired some better artists for the demos desu, but w/e the tools look like they're there.
hopefully it's performant at >4k

So I've gone ahead and downloaded it.
File size is 1.2g but you gotta give them your data if you want it free.

Some screens

At 2k Low it's got a monster draw taking up 90% of my GPU

Very basic diamond plate

My take aways here are -

>Will do the job and free
>Massive resource hog
>UI is not user friendly
>Node selection is weird

>6/10 would still pirate substance designer and only use IM for a portrayal of legitimacy

You can config the memory budget in the popup with the resolution.
This thing absolutely shreds SD in terms of speed on my rig.

>>971721
Yeah, pretty easy. You can also use nodes in painting mode it seems.

Probably an adobe faggot.

I used it for 30 minutes easy to notice that it executes complex materials at 4k on a tiny budget faster than SD. Didn't try much though, just clicked through materials and tried blur nodes. Tried the painting template project.

Fuck adobe

>No UV paint option
>No masking by polygon option

While I agree that Adobe sucks, those are some pretty simple options that they didn't include.

One of the presenters sounds like a girly faggot. I simply can't abide and that reason, I'm out.

I'll keep an eye on it, doesn't look to be worth the switch right now but I've been frustrated with SP shenanigans since I've started learning 3d years ago and this seems to be on the way to finally kill it
