Overview

Master PBR (Physically Based Rendering) texture creation and export workflows for web and real-time engines. This skill covers Substance 3D Painter workflows from material creation through web-optimized texture export, with Python automation for batch processing and integration with WebGL/WebGPU engines.

Key capabilities:

  • PBR material authoring (metallic/roughness workflow)
  • Web-optimized texture export (glTF, Three.js, Babylon.js)
  • Python API automation for batch export
  • Texture compression and optimization for real-time rendering
