## Installation

- Click on "Releases" on the right and download zip

- Go to `Edit -> Preferences -> Addons`

- Press `Install...`

- Select the archive

In 3D view press N. You'll find new buttons in the menu on the right on the "Substance" tab

# Usage

- Put objects you want to texture into a collection and give them materials. Individual materials will become texture sets in Painter! If an object doesn't have a material it will be created automatically

- Click on the collection you want to texture in the outliner

- Press the `Export and Open in Painter` button

- When you're done, export textures from Painter (`Ctrl+Shift+E`), and press `Load Painter Textures` in Blender ✨

Tip:

- In Blender you can link objects to a collection instead of moving them if you hold `Ctrl` when you drag them in the outliner. This way you can create collections specifically for Substance Painter export and group assets however you like!

# Preferences

In the addon preferences you can configure:

- Substance Painter Path (in case it wasn't automatically detected)

- Textures Path. Path to the directory where all of the subdirectories for collections will be created. Leave blank to create them in the same directory as the blend file

# Supported Substance Versions

The addon is working with:

- Windows CC Substance Painter

- Windows Steam Substance Painter

- MacOS CC Substance Painter

- MacOS Steam Substance Painter
