Adobe Substance painter integration

Pipeline Integrations
1

I was wondering if anyone has managed to get the latest version of substance painter running now that everything has shifted to Adobe. I have changed the paths in the start up to match the newer software and plugin paths . Yet in the startup.py I keep getting

AttributeError: 'LooseVersion' object has no attribute 'version'

which seems to be deprecated in the later versions of python so not really sure

2

Figured out how to get it to get to the desktop in the startup.py you have to rework the get_file_info

from win32api import *
def get_file_info(filename):
  
    File_information = GetFileVersionInfo(filename, "\\")
  
    ms_file_version = File_information['FileVersionMS']
    ls_file_version = File_information['FileVersionLS']
  
    return [str(HIWORD(ms_file_version)), str(LOWORD(ms_file_version)),
            str(HIWORD(ls_file_version)), str(LOWORD(ls_file_version))]

and also edit the _find_software to include the changes
executable_version = ".".join(get_file_info(executable_path))
still working out the rest to get it to show up in substance but that’s the first step

the new snag is getting the client to connect

  File "C:/Users/dfult/git/tk-substancepainter/startup/bootstrap.py", line 83, in start_toolkit_classic
    engine = sgtk.platform.start_engine(env_engine, context.sgtk, context)
  File "C:\Users\dfult\AppData\Roaming\Shotgun\reeltv\p551c1684.basic.desktop\cfg\install\core\python\tank\platform\engine.py", line 3012, in start_engine
    return _start_engine(engine_name, tk, None, context)
  File "C:\Users\dfult\AppData\Roaming\Shotgun\reeltv\p551c1684.basic.desktop\cfg\install\core\python\tank\platform\engine.py", line 3172, in _start_engine
    engine = class_obj(tk, new_context, engine_name, env)
  File "C:\Users\dfult\git\tk-substancepainter\engine.py", line 191, in __init__
    Engine.__init__(self, *args, **kwargs)
  File "C:\Users\dfult\AppData\Roaming\Shotgun\reeltv\p551c1684.basic.desktop\cfg\install\core\python\tank\platform\engine.py", line 197, in __init__
    self.pre_app_init()
  File "C:\Users\dfult\git\tk-substancepainter\engine.py", line 447, in pre_app_init
    painter_version_str = self._dcc_app.get_application_version()
  File "C:\Users\dfult\git\tk-substancepainter\python\tk_substancepainter\application.py", line 203, in get_application_version
    version = self.send_and_receive("GET_VERSION")
  File "C:\Users\dfult\git\tk-substancepainter\python\tk_substancepainter\application.py", line 87, in send_and_receive
    return self.send_and_receive.data
AttributeError: 'functools.partial' object has no attribute 'data'

functools.partial does not have a member data. Perhaps they meant partial.args, or the partial was supposed to be evaluated before that.

Found the root of the problem I think
2022-05-04 09:23:57,789 [31168 DEBUG sgtk.core.util.qt_importer] Unable to import module 'QtWebKit': No module named 'PySide2.QtWebKitWidgets
2022-05-04 09:23:57,789 [31168 DEBUG sgtk.core.util.qt_importer] Unable to import module 'QtWebEngineWidgets': module 'PySide2.QtWebEngineWidgets' has no attribute 'QtWebEngineWidgets'

I guess python 3 does not support QtWebEngine gonna try and find a work around for now

with python api being more integrated in Substance painter In going through and making a new engine for it seems to be going ok so far

Check if you can bypass this by setting SHOTGUN_SKIP_QTWEBENGINEWIDGETS_IMPORT in the startup environment.

Might be worth double checking with @Diego_Garcia_Huerta as he probably has this in a near finished state.

Hi there,

Thanks @Halil for pointing out this thread to me!

I have been following closely the updates of the Substance Painter python API and implementing a new engine from scratch for quite a while now, removing the client/server approach that in some cases caused trouble. It is only recently that I considered their python API was more or less on par with their QML/javascript, as initially was missing quite a few crucial features.

@Dfulton1 I think I am 95% there, I just need to do a cleanup pass on the code before I can make it public. I will try to make sometime this week/next week for this.

Cheers,

@Diego_Garcia_Huerta Great to hear I’m almost done with it on my end as well though mine is currently rather basic and needs some UI clean up.

Hi @Diego_Garcia_Huerta and others. Is this Painter integration available at all?
