ES-Shape

ES-Shape generates shapes into Substance 3D hosts, Painter, Sampler, Designer, but also third party hosts such as Blender. With a uniform interface across hosts, design simple or complex shapes and integrate them with the own functionalities of the host.

Coming with many examples, video tutorials and documentation, ES-Shape is also free for personal use!

New in v2.0

ES-Shape has nearly doubled the amount of features in this major update, here are a few of them but be sure to check the examples and tutorials for a complete list of the ES-Shape features.

• Multi-host support, specific variants of ES-Shape for Sampler, Painter (decal) and generic hosts.
• Multi-Curves: a drawing type enabling a single component to draw several curves, related by progressions on various attributes.
• Sweep effect: samples the shape multiple times with progressions along luminosity, size, direction etc.
• Radial Symmetry: layout shapes in circle with various operating attributes, works great with the Sweep effect.
• Custom Modulation: draw your own modulation with a Curve node.
• Effect ordering: main effects may be applied in any order, leading to different results.
• New effects: outline, pre/post rotations, partially reversed symmetry and other improvements.
• Styling: dashed, variable-dashed and dotted curves.
• Modularity: in Designer, drawing and effects may be used separately enabling to chain effects and improve performance.
• Parametric Profiles: applying to Thickness and Luminosity, enable to define profiles using parameters only (without using Curve nodes).
• All new Tutorial Series with over 50 short videos.

... and many other improvements.
