Editor’s notice: That is the primary installment of our month-to-month Into the Omniverse sequence, which highlights the newest developments to NVIDIA Omniverse furthering the evolution of the metaverse with the OpenUSD framework, and showcases how artists, builders and enterprises can rework their workflows with the platform.
An replace to the Omniverse Connector for Adobe Substance 3D Painter will save 3D creators throughout industries important effort and time. New capabilities embody an export function utilizing Common Scene Description (OpenUSD), an open, extensible file framework enabling non-destructive workflows and collaboration in scene creation.
Benjamin Samar, technical director of video manufacturing firm Elara Programs, is utilizing the Adobe Substance 3D Painter Connector to offer a “uniquely human method to an in any other case medical dialogue,” he stated.
Samar and his group tapped the Connector to create an animated public-awareness video for sickle cell illness. The video goals to assist adolescents experiencing sickle cell illness perceive the significance of rapidly telling an grownup or a medical skilled in the event that they’re experiencing signs.
In line with Samar, the Adobe Substance 3D Painter Connector for Omniverse was particularly helpful for organising the entire video’s environments and characters — earlier than bringing them into the USD Composer app for scene composition and real-time RTX rendering of the high-quality visuals.
“Through the use of this Connector, supplies had been mechanically imported, transformed to Materials Definition Language and able to go inside USD Composer with a single click on,” he stated.
The Adobe Substance 3D Artwork and Improvement group itself makes use of Omniverse of their workflows. Their Finish of Summer season undertaking fostered collaboration and creativity among the many Adobe artists in Omniverse, and resulted in stunningly wealthy and life like visuals.
Study extra about how they used Adobe Substance 3D instruments with Unreal Engine 5 and Omniverse in this on-demand NVIDIA GTC session, and get an unique behind-the-scenes have a look at Adobe’s NVIDIA Studio-accelerated workflows within the making of this undertaking.
Plus, technical artists are utilizing Adobe Substance 3D and Omniverse to create scratches and different defects on 3D objects to practice imaginative and prescient AI fashions.
Adobe and Omniverse workflows provide creators improved effectivity and suppleness — whether or not they’re coaching AI fashions, animating an academic video to enhance medical data or bringing a heat summer season scene to life.
And shortly, the following launch of the Adobe Substance 3D Painter Connector for Omniverse will additional streamline their inventive processes.
Connecting the Dots for a Extra Seamless Workflow
Model 203.0 of the Adobe Substance 3D Painter Connector for Omniverse, coming mid-June, will provide new capabilities that allow extra seamless workflows.
Substance 3D Painter’s new OpenUSD export function, appropriate with model 8.3.0 of the app and above, permits customers to export textures utilizing any built-in or user-defined preset to dynamically construct OmniPBR shaders — packages that calculate the suitable ranges of sunshine, darkness and coloration throughout 3D rendering — in USD Composer.
To additional velocity and ease workflows, the Connector replace will take away “rotating texture folders,” uniquely generated momentary directories that textures had been exported to with every brush stroke.
With every change the artist makes, textures will now save over the identical path, enormously dashing the method for regionally saved tasks.
