Adobe Substance 3D Sampler

Adobe Substance 3D Sampler is a paid application centered on material authoring. It supports procedural materials and game-engine export, so authored materials can move into game-development workflows. Sampler runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Adobe lists a 30-day trial, but no free plan. The Substance 3D Collection has separate options for individuals, teams, and students and teachers. The individuals collection lists 100GB of cloud storage, the teams collection lists 1TB, and the students-and-teachers collection lists 5GB. Its stated primary workflow is material authoring rather than a broad general-purpose design role. The combination of procedural creation, cross-platform desktop support, and game-engine export defines the product’s scope for users who need to create materials and send them onward to supported engines.

It suits material artists and game-development teams that need procedural material creation and game-engine export. Cross-platform users can run it on Windows, macOS, or Linux.
