Welcome to Substance Component Essentials and Tilemaker!
Substance Component Essentials is your go-to resource pack for kickstarting your Substance Designer textures. It's designed to streamline your workflow by providing a curated collection of scanned construction materials, eliminating the initial setup hurdles and allowing you to dive straight into the creative process.
In today's game development landscape, you often face the choice between fully procedural workflows or relying on existing scan libraries. Substance Component Essentials bridges this gap by offering scan-quality materials within the procedural environment of Substance Designer. This means you can achieve high-quality results faster without sacrificing the flexibility to customize your designs.
Introducing Tilemaker - an enhanced version of Substance Component Essentials that simplifies the implementation process. With Tilemaker, you no longer need to spend time setting up components. It comes preloaded with a variety of preconstructed wall, floor, and tile designs that can be easily adjusted to suit your specific needs. Simply drag and drop the custom node into your graph to get started immediately, no installation required.
While Substance Component Essentials was originally intended to streamline the initial stages of texture creation, Tilemaker takes it a step further by providing tools to bring your textures closer to completion. Whether you're prototyping or blocking out your projects, Tilemaker allows you to iterate quickly and efficiently, saving time for fine-tuning and polishing later on.
Vol.2 of Substance Component Essentials builds upon the success of Vol.1, incorporating feedback and praise to deliver an even more satisfying experience.
The components in this pack are sourced from a recycling firm specializing in restoring old building materials. From 1800s-era bricks and stones brimming with character to pristine modern tiles, the pack offers a diverse range of textures. The included 16-Bit TIFFs provide ample flexibility, allowing you to manipulate levels to create countless variations.
The pack consists of 32 components including:
- Floor bricks
- Brick walls
- Regular bricks
- Cobblestones
- Stone floors
- Stone tiles
All assets are provided in 4k resolution 16-Bit TIFF format and include a heightmap and cross-polarized flat albedo.
I hope you enjoy using Substance Component Essentials and Tilemaker to elevate your texture creation process.
