More information on the Bilateral Filtering process

Substance Designer

Bilateral Blur is great for simplifying height maps built in Substance Designer. Just plug in a noisy image and let the node handle the cleanup! ⤵

Fine-tune your noise selection with de-noising and pre-blur parameters. ⤵

Works for both colour and grayscale images! ⤵

Substance Painter

Bilateral Blur also works in Substance Painter! Just drag in the Painter.sbsar as a filter and harness all of the same realtime functionality. ⤵

Are the global controls not cutting it? Bilateral Blur also provides individual channel overrides for the ultimate control! ⤵

And More!
