Paragon Character Texturing Pipeline
summary
Paragon character texturing uses Substance Painter master file to store masks, patterns and bakes and Unreal's Material Functions as a 400+ tiling-library so artists tint and layer instead of painting unique diffuses. Pipeline supports 29 heroes and 120+ skins, ships a hero every three weeks, targets a 350 shader instruction limit, composes masks in 2–3 days and enables one-click export to UE4 inside a calibrated lighting courtyard for rapid, game-wide updates.
