HOW TO: Substance painter to octane c4d 1 click solution!!!! Tweet

[FelipeCortes]

work on other paint softwares , you only need to create a Presset for octane and with 1 click become an entire folder of textures on different materials with its canals,is amazing.

the only thing I could not solve is how to add the image texture with the texture inside, someone can find the solution to that ( maybe aoktar XD )

Hi,
very nice plugin !!

perhaps a "syntax" trick, between [c4d.OCT_MATERIAL_DIFFUSE_LINK] and [c4d.IMAGETEXTURE_FILE].

but it out of my knowledge

Hey nitroman, big fan.

This plugin looks great - if you could make an octane specific version that could set up an octane material using this node structure: viewtopic.php?f=30&t=54066&p=274158&hilit=substance+setup#p274158 that would be amazing. But probably a lot of work.

Please take a look this code. Let me know the results

Code: Select all

#define ID_OCTANE_IMAGE_TEXTURE            1029508
IMAGETEXTURE_FILE =1100

///------------------------------------------------------------------------
BaseShader* addImageTextureToNode(GeListNode *node, long slotID, String name)
{
    if(!node) return NULL;

    BaseContainer *data = ((BaseShader*)node)->GetDataInstance();
    if(!data) return NULL;
    BaseList2D *oldBL = data->GetLink(slotID, node->GetDocument());
    removeLinkedShadersFromNode(oldBL);

    BaseShader *newShd = BaseShader::Alloc(ID_OCTANE_IMAGE_TEXTURE);
    if (!newShd) return NULL;

    BaseContainer *shdBC = newShd->GetDataInstance();
    if(!shdBC) return NULL;

    Filename fn(name);
    shdBC->SetString(IMAGETEXTURE_FILE, name);

    data->SetLink(slotID, newShd);
    insertOurNode((BaseList2D*)node, newShd);
    EventAdd();
    return newShd;
}

Actually, I don’t know if a can post it here, but I made a plugin that analyzes folder for naming mask(diff, albedo, etc.) and creates an Octane Material
You an check it here: https://youtu.be/CiIYECjhQAw

well many don’t know this but there is a plugin called Substance Live link.
It creates a link between substance and your dcc. Save out a mesh. open in painter.
Have the server plugin running in dcc *maya/c4d etc. * This listens for the plugin in painter.

Inside painter you do all your initial bakes. then use the Live link plugin to send over all the maps from painter.. long as you don’t rename anything on either side they link up and as you go just hit the update button.. a bit of a pain to install (getting easier now)
