I came from Layer Painter and believe me, Ucu was a breath of fresh air, by comparison. It's got some growing pains, sure, but what you get for the ever so sweet low price of free, it's just unbelievable. (And it crashes a helluva lot less, too.)

UCUPAINT is better, its still mantained and updated, Ravage 2 has been abandoned for 2 years now.

Looking forward to the day Blender introduces layers. I finally grasps nodes but man, layers would be a game changer

Why they didn't make layers from beginning? Its so obvious when you try to make compound material. As if developers never tried to make such material, they just making default cubes and adding one single texture.

For painting having layers, it's clearly night and day, node was powerfull for advance PBR feature and keep the control but as a material mixer, it's alway painfull to use.

Bought the addon and loved it! Am sorry I mean to say extension

excellent!

Why shouldn't I just use HAS Paint layers instead? Which is totally free and suitable for hand paint the layer myself? I didnt see and advantage about this addon

Thank you sir

Whoa.

You made the realistic hair addon? That shid is tight

So which one is best... Ravage 2 or HAS Paint Layers? Thats also a free texture paint addon that looks very similar.

Does the painting mode have the possibility to choose brushes/stencils etc.?

Is there stencils for decals as well

I generally just go with Fluent Materializer

@zizzonedibattipaglia6247

That's a fairly good alternative. Node based and very close to substance in terms of results. But it's not free, of course

Is there an option to paint lines and curves rather than just a simple brush

Is there any catches to this beside the pay versions? Seems too good to be true. Will buy and try for sure. Thanks

The node material editor have already everything, the only problem is to make a fancy layer interface that can make the same in painting mode, i already make a material mixer , by painting in different level of grey or even with a kind of cryptomatte in Color , Can changing material with painting , but it's not as fast as substance, even if it performe and replicate well in Blender with some trick.

What blender version are you using?

100% in my mind I believe substance gives a kick back to blender. The fact blender hasn’t just added it is comical. Billion nodes but no easy texture painter. Comical

you should try ucupaint

Plz you make video on mixer 🙏

have you tried pbr painter?

The addon is almost dead. bought it years ago then suddenly the development stopped. I am not sure if it back to life

I was wondering, does this add-on also work if i were going for an anime style as well. Is it possible to make a tutorial using this add-on on how to create anime textures

You could have beat up that car to show texture or used something other than a car.

Ravage is no more maintain si don t wast your Time. I was a ravage user and it was really good asset. Ucupaint seem to be more revelant this year....

I think you should stop blender to do everything. Armor paint is an open-source software that completely look like substance painter and is fully optimised for such work. It just cost 15$ to access fully textured workflow. The cool thing is that it directly read blender file instead of exporting to obj/fbx. Why people are wasting their time in making addons like Has paint, Ucupaint and others. Because at the end you can't change the black and white UI of blender and can't optimised it to texturing program. I think people should use Armor paint actively and support the developer because it work with native blender file so the connection will be seamless. You should also make video about it.

Armor Paint doesn't have a projection texturing system like Zbrush's Spotlight and the forum/ software development seem pretty inactive. Blender has this feature, but the texturing performance is lame

I love how hard users of blender try lol, almost like how hard linux users try, sorry we are staying at windows for obvious reasons... answer is same for blender... obviously

Addons, addons, addons... My god, Blender have nice built-in features for years, (before 2.8, before any paid substance trash, etc) like nodes for make any combination of layers and more, or like custom textures for make any brush what you need. Peoples dont want teach the basics and seek for silver bullets like adobe soft, newer versions, pluguns, etc.

hi, thanks for sharing your opinion but would've been a bit better if you check out the channel's other videos before commenting negative stuff, i've done many texturing videos from manually painting all the way to baking everything inside blender without using any additional addons, addons are here to make our lives easier and our project faster to compelete, eveything i showed on this video is free so theres no reason to hate, and funny thing is that when i make video without using any addons there are always some people sayin "why are you wasting time just use THIS addon" so its getting hate no matter what lol

You seem to have no value for your time huh, what's the difference between using an addon or doing everything manually if you're going to arrive at the same result? with that mentality you might as well discard every other thing humans have created that ease and speed up otherwise arduous and time intensive tasks...brother move on if you've got nothing constructive to say and go spend your time messing with noodles in the node graph, also what do you mean "people don't want to teach the basics"? There's literally lots of texturing tutorials on his channel 💀 smh

Could never achieve the workflow you could get in substance. By the way the proceduralism , should be as Mari, blending a more light version using layers instead nodes.. they could follow the ideas of geonodes, but, it's more complicated noverall, best Substance for this kind of material creation, and since the software is developed to do that, Blender is a sort of open source 3d Software... I really would like to see after 20/30 levels if still not crashing!
