3DCREATIVE MAGAZINE | Presenting assets in Marmoset Viewer Filling in the cracks: The painted-on 04 stencils can look a little flat and fake. This is because the normal map detail from the wood is showing through the blood decal too much; as blood is quite thick, you would expect it to fill in the cracks more, so to fix this we need to adjust the imported normal map. Substance Painter uses height maps to add to the normal map but this wont allow us to remove details from the normal map that we imported at the start. In order to paint into the normal map itself you need to add the normal map to the material. In the TextureSet settings next to the channel section, click the ‘+’ sign to get a lot more channels that we can add to our material. Select normal map. You will now notice a Base Normal has been added to the layer and a ‘nrm’ tab has appeared on the material. Now we can make edits to the actual normal map and subtract the detail away. Normal map wood damage: At the 05 top of the layer section, select normal from the drop-down list so that we can only paint in the normal channel and not affect the other channels accidentally. Create a new layer and turn off all except the height channel. Now when you paint on the model you will notice you can add or subtract height data from the normal map. I feel the damaged part of the handle is a little flat, so I paint in some random brushstrokes to carve away at the wood. You can add scratches or blend out any detail you feel is too heavy around the asset. Completed texturing of shield: This 06 now completes the methods I use to texture the shield. You can keep painting in details where you feel it is needed. This image shows the back view of the shield, which I think is quite successful at showing a damaged, weathered and well-used Viking shield. The gold ring and stitched leather really add a nice hint of detail. These assets are now ready to be exported to Marmoset Toolbag 2. Exporting the textures: The export 07 process in Substance Painter is very simple. Select File > Export Textures and you will be presented with the export window. Here you can say where the files will be saved to; the size of the exported texture maps and the format of the textures. I use TGA for my format and a resolution of 2,948. Filling in the wood detail with blood to stop the ‘painted-on’ effect Painting in new normal map details into the wood damage There is also a list of all the textures that will be exported: Base color, Height, Roughness, Metallic and Normal. Hit export and Substance Painter will export the textures quickly. We can now move on to presenting our work in Marmoset Toolbag 2. Completed model in Substance Painter, ready for export 3DCREATIVEMAG.COM
3DCREATIVE MAGAZINE | ISSUE 124 Exporting the textures out of Substance Painter ready for Marmoset Importing the shield mesh and normal map into Marmoset Toolbag 2 Mesh and normal in Marmoset: The 08 first thing to do in Marmoset Toolbag 2 is import the shield mesh, which should be the same FBX file you used in Substance Painter. I then drag the normal map into the surface/ normal map slot of the material. I like to do this first as it will show up any problems. Sometimes the normal map can be flipped if you notice any issues. Select one of the Flip options to correct the map – in this case I flip the normal map on the Y axis. Now it looks as it did before in Substance Painter. 89
