Chunky Stylized Stone Bricks in Substance Designer- Height/Normal/AO

In this Adobe Substance 3D Designer tutorial I go over some of my thoughts and techniques for achieving stylized stones that have a bit of a sculpted chunky feel to them, but could be applied to a variety of materials. This only covers height, Normal, and Ambient Occlusion map generation.

Thanks for the tutorial, I hope we will see more tutorials on the designer.

Thiago can watch with his coffee, I got me my Pepsi! Nice to watch your thought process, that dilation node really made it work. That semi overlap on bricks always short circuited my brain because it's not a thing, but you made it look like it was meant to be. Should do a follow up on how you would do the Base Color

Amazing tutorial! Understood everything and managed to make my own result with how you explained it all, I hope you start making videos again c:

The STW dilation doesnt seem to exist anymore and its been replaced by edge wear, I cant seem to find an option to bring the bricks closer together

This guide has several serious flaws: 1) Very small interface size. At 1080p the settings are barely visible. 2) The author did not prepare for recording, there was a lot of tweaking and alterations. This greatly extends the repetition of such guides manually. 3) Paid third-party node. I would really like to see how such a task can be accomplished using the built-in tools of the program, and not by purchasing third-party nodes. I'll still like it because the video shows some important principles of working in SD, but as a guide this video is too long and difficult to follow.
