Unified UV Suite is a high-speed UV workflow tool for Substance 3D Painter that lets you scale, rotate, and switch projection modes across your layer stack in seconds—without breaking your setup.
Apply transformations to single layers, full folders, or entire smart materials at once, and instantly convert projections (UV ↔ Triplanar) with consistent results. The plugin also intelligently ignores “non-texture” layers (empty fills, uniform colors, anchors/references), so your stack stays clean and stable while you work fast.
Key Features
⚡ Zero-Lag Performance
The UI updates instantly while you work. Heavy texture calculations are only applied when you release the slider, keeping your viewport smooth even with massive layer stacks.
🔄 Batch Scaling & Rotation
Scale or rotate single layers, selected groups, or your entire layer stack simultaneously.
Rotation: Snaps to 45-degree increments for perfect alignment.
Scale: Snaps to 0.25 steps for clean, standardized tiling values.
It detects parameters like Texture Scale or Grunge Scale inside generators and scales them relative to your selection.
🧠 Smart Filtering (The "Safe Mode")
The plugin is intelligent. It automatically ignores empty layers, Uniform Color layers, and Anchor Points.
This ensures you never accidentally break your masks or anchor references while scaling your textures.
🌐 Instant Projection Switching
Convert selected layers (or all layers) from UV Projection to Triplanar (and back) with one click.
Generator Compatibility: It seamlessly switches generators between UV and Triplanar projection modes.
🚀 Workflow Macros & Shortcuts
