Simple Diffuse — Substance Painter

The core purpose of SimpleDiffuse is to simulate the depth of hand-painted textures while keeping the efficiency of a procedural workflow.

Unlike standard PBR (Physically Based Rendering) materials that require separate tweaking for metalness, roughness, and height, SimpleDiffuse is an all-in-one generator. It is built by professional artists at Nhance School to provide "correct values" immediately upon application, provided your 3D model has properly baked mesh maps like curvature and ambient occlusion.

Adds a glow effect to edges, which is particularly effective for organic or magical assets. The core purpose of SimpleDiffuse is to simulate

You can apply the generator to a fill layer, add a black mask, and use Color Selection or Select by UV to rapidly texture different parts of a complex mesh. SimpleDiffuse vs. Standard Diffuse Maps Create Textures in less than 10 minutes - SimpleDiffuse Key Features and Workflow Adds a glow effect

Adds a light-to-dark vertical transition to characters or objects.

It automatically adds volume to your model using curvature and AO data, meaning you don't need to manually paint every shadow or highlight.

The generator includes built-in features for:
