Substance Painter to VRAY
Free!
This is a little free tool to help you import and setup the shaders created with Substance Painter, inside 3dsmax and render them properly with Vray.
Substance Painter Render :
3dsmax Vray Render :
Step1-Max preparation.
Note: This tool works with the default Vray workflow (with change on gamma).
Setup your scene as usual to export objects from 3dsMax to Substance Painter.
Keep in mind to give the correct name without forbidden characters to your shader it’s important.
Step2- Substance Painter
Import your model, bake and create all your shaders as usual (you can follow the great tutorial from Darren Wallace if you need help to setup scene).
Step3- Substance Painter export.
Select the Vray exporter in the config and choose the format of your export and the folder where you want to export all your maps.
Step4- 3dsMax import.
Launch SubstanceToVRAY tool (Scripting>run script>SubstanceToVRAY.mse) and select the folder where you create your maps. The script will find all the maps you create and recognize shaders.
If you click on CREATE Shaders, you will find on your material editors the shaders created (with correct gamma correction for the maps) ready to render. You can directly assign new shaders by clicking on “Update Scene Object”.
That’s it!

MultiMesher
This is a quick FREE tool.
it acts like the Mesher, but instead of picking only one source object you can have a list of them.
And with some boolean options to intersect or subtract the meshes.
There are 4 lists to manage all types of boolean operations, add, intersect, subtract, invert.
It keeps the animation…modifiers, and the uv’s.
and the Source objects remains separate, so it’ll not collapse it in one, like the boolean does.
Combine
This tool is derivated from EchOoo and Multimesher,
I have it since I released these two tools and use it a lot in production, so I think it’s gonna be useful for you.
It’s very helpful to combine multiple animated meshes into one,
without loosing their animations and deformations.
Features :
- pick multiple source objects, it’ll combine them in a new mesh
- you can replace the sources by a replacer object, the replacer will get the transforms of the sources.
- you have 6 Retime functions
- Copy : takes the exact source (or replacer) animation
- Delay : you can Delay the animation
- Playback Graph : like in the point cache you can animate a time value to Retime the Sources Animation, slowdown or speed up…etc
- Position XYZ : Delay animation by axis position.
- Point Distance : Delay animation by a point distance
- Spline Distance : Delay animation by Spline proximity
- A random value which works on top of it.
- Cache tools to easily point cache the result.
System requirements :
– 3dsmax from 2010 to 2017.

FurGuides Painter
Fur Guides Painter is a new tool, which will drastically speed your hair&Fur, Ornatrix and HairFarm workflow.
If like me you are tired to try to brush Hair&Fur using the given brushes, because it just takes too long to have the results your need, this tool is definitely for you.
You will almost never have to use the hair&Fur or ornatrix brushes anymore, and your fur styling will never take more than 10mins or less.
The examples you can see in the begining where really quickly done, using Hair&Fur and the guides painter.The models are free models from Evermotion. And they are just here to show you the natural looking of the fur flow, it’s not about the renderings which was not the point here.
This tool will let you concentrate on the shading and the look of your fur.
Thank you to Paul Smith at busty kelp for the explanations about the autoflow concept.
System requirements :
– 3dsmax from 2013 to 2017.
Licence details :
It’s a node locked licence. (you can only use it on one computer, but you can still use the generated splines and the Hair&Fur on other computers).
To get your Mac Address, you can run this tool inside 3dsmax.

Hey Clovis,
Lovely and super handy tool ! Working really well.
I was wondering if you had any plan in updating it with UDIM integration?
Right now it doesn’t seem to recognise UDIM naming from Painter.
This would make the tool perfect !
Thanks again for it
