HairTG-Cards 2 RC1 is now available in this package (all licenses except Mini)! Check out the numerous enhancements for Painter and Blender including automated project setup, design tools, export, Card Sets, new geometry tools and more! A two-part video presents an overview of the texturing and modeling tools so you can get started right away! Requirements for HairTG-Cards 2: Substance 3D Painter 10.1+ / Blender 4.2/4.3/4.4.

HairTG-Cards re-imagines hair card authoring with compelling and 100% procedural texturing and modeling tools within Substance 3D hosts.

Create hair textures directly in Substance 3D Painter from the many available design presets. Modify hair texture properties in realtime in Painter and see the result in-context, on the hair model within your 3D scene.

HairTG-Cards also enables to create hair card based 3D hair models within Substance 3D Stager using procedural geometry generation tools.

HairTG-Cards Mini is a non-commercial edition of HairTG-Cards, supporting limited procedural texturing only in Substance 3D Painter.

You may join our Discord server for questions, support and discuss with the community.

Requirements

Substance 3D Painter 7.4 /2021 or compatible version for texturing, Substance 3D Stager 1.1.2 or compatible version for modeling.

For the Pro editions, Substance Designer 12.4.0 or above in order to use the Designer specific components.

The modeling and texturing tools are independent. It is also possible to use the modeling tools partially and complete the model into another software.

Main features

Texturing in Substance 3D Painter

Procedural PBR hair/fur texture generation for hair cards in Substance 3D Painter with direct visualization on the 3D model.

Modular design and centralized control: design hair textures independently and control their main properties from a centralized Controller enabling to change various properties to all the hair textures at once such as thickness, length, waving etc. all this with direct visualization on the 3D hair model within Painter.

Supported PBR maps: Opacity, ID, Depth (Height/Displacement), Color, Flow (Direction), Anisotropy Angle and Level, Normal, Ambient Occlusion, Roughness, Root and Tip.

Dozens of artist-designed texture presets ready to be used and modified through parameters.

Many parameters to procedurally generate hair textures including hair thickness, length, shape, density, waving, per-hair opacity handling, combing, layering, multiple hair grouping levels, clumping, braid/rope designs and many more.

Automated variation support enabling to obtain hundreds of unique designs by just moving a slider.

Extensive coloring modes including shadowing modes, tint modes in full and at root/tip, color presets, automatic color palettes and Blend Maps.

Morphing support enabling to morph a design into one another, also usable to generate variations.
