While the idea of getting industry-standard software for free is tempting, using tools like GenP carries massive downsides:

For hobbyists and indie developers who hate subscriptions, Substance 3D Painter is available on Steam.

If the goal is to avoid the high cost of the Adobe Creative Cloud subscription, many artists opt for the of Substance Painter. This version offers a "perpetual license" for a one-time fee, providing a legal way to own the software without a recurring monthly charge.

Substance 3D Painter allows artists to paint directly onto 3D meshes using advanced procedural tools and physically-based rendering (PBR) materials.

On screen, the dragon’s texture was no longer marble. It was scorched —deep blacks, arterial reds, the kind of burn map you’d see on a re-entry vehicle. And the UV islands were wrong. The seams where the texture wrapped around the 3D model had begun to bleed into each other, forming letters.

Adobe Substance 3D Painter functions like Photoshop but in a fully realized 3D digital workspace. Instead of painting flat 2D maps, artists paint directly onto 3D geometry using channels like roughness, metallic, base color, and normal maps simultaneously.
