- Something else that we get inside 3ds Max with the substance plug-in installed, is a substance menu that among other things, gives us access to the substance settings dialogue. A control panel, from inside of which we can set up a number of the default options used by the substance engine each and every time we load an archive into Max. For instance, we can chose whether the engine computes using the GPU or CPU engine by default with GPU being the faster but in some situations less stable option such as if we have a graphics card that has a limited amount of onboard memory for instance. Note also that if we do make a change here we will need to restart 3ds Max in order for that to initialize as the warning message now tells us. Something else that we can control here is the default import resolution for a substance. Now of course the setting that we decide on here will probably depend quite a bit on the type of work that we typically do. So, if we are developing 3D assets for mobile…
