You don't need to make a new account on substance site; instead you register your steam versions with the site.

Curious about this as well. Will this be an automatic unwrapper?

[Aspen]

Think yea

[Slice]

Yeah looks like it. I wonder if this will be in 2020.

[Nohiro]

Well automatic unwrap is still not as good as doing it yourself by hand, i guess can be okay on some types of objects tho.

ps: Dont waste uv space.

idk why we need uv unwrapper.

because you can unwrap in 3d program in first place.

unless editing overlap UV.

As a lazy idiot, I always use Smart Unwrap in Blender

[Aspen]

With unwrapper be easy to unwrap sculpt. And, we dont know, mb unwrapper from Substance be better than Blender auto...

Not gonna use it, because UV can be done in modelling app, and I triangulate model before exporting it to substance. Unwrapping triangulated model isn't as easy.

But if there was retopo + unwrap (like in 3d-Coat) maybe it would be useful, or if you can see texture changes in real time without having to re-export fbx. And auto-rebake maps if you change UV (not after each vertex move ofc, after clicking apply)

automatic unwrap is still not as good

Houdini auto unwrap is very good… good at packing, at least (manual seams/smoothing groups are still best)

-------

auto unwrap could be used for stones and rocks if you use triplanar / layered shaders in game engine, it doesn't care as much for UV stretches or texel density and tiles perfectly (masks would be stretched, but textures not), if normal map and masks bake is good, then it's good.
