In Chapter Four, rather than looking at exporting a procedural substance file from designer, we will instead output bitmaps that can be used in V-Ray, showing how we can do this for both metal roof and spec glass workflows.

We will also be taking a look here at how we can create a custom output channel for ourselves. I checked my version of Houdini vs the vray plugin Houdini version, and they didnt match. Finally, in Chapter Five, we will again switch applications and this time take a look at using substance painter with V-Ray and Max again, with the creation of both metal roof and spec glass outputs covered. I was using Houdini 18.5.563 There is no vray plugin for that exact version. It was either an earlier version, or a newer one. I had downloaded the latest vray plugin (for Houdini 18.5.596). Click Sign in with Trimble and enter your Trimble ID and password.So I went and updated Houdini to 18.5.596.
