In my opinion, the only usable software in that area is Marmoset Toolbag. It is stable, has enough features like Substance Painter to be useful, and they sell perpetual licenses.
Adobe disqualifies itself with their subscription pricing. ArmorPaint feels pre pre alpha. And Coat3D has fever features but worse DRM.
- DaedPsyker 4y agoI took a look at toolbox just now and seen they've only just got symmetry and stencils last month, which would make me worried about what other aspects they are currently missing. There is a perpetual license for substance painter on steam, which although updates are only for that years version, is still permanent. Not ideal I know (I'm stuck with a minor bug) but it's half the price of toolbox for an industry standard tool.
- fxtentacle 4y agoThe Steam license is only allowed if your total annual income is much lower than a typical programmer's salary.
- hogwodondo 4y agoWhat DRM do you have in mind? I can't find anything about that on their website. On the contrary - they say you just put a license key in and can work offline - no sever pinging or similar I was expecting.

If you happen to have it running on both machines at the same time, 3D-Coat will warn you about it, and eventually restrict your usage." That only works if it's phoning home.
