    Excellent for baking and rendering, the best and im not exaggerating. not so good for texturing itself

    We are using Procreate less and less as Adobe tools catch up with more iPad applications and sketching styles, but Procreate is still superior in flexibility and online tutorials. We are using other, more formal tools more, just because the changing nature of work is less illustrative.

    Cons
    Marmoset
    • probably when you have an already done baking setup and you change the mesh, the reload takes a lot of time.
    • sometimes its very difficult to find errors in the bake because the beauty render in Marmoset Toolbag hides it very well. In the viewer of our texturing program is very noticeable so I have to go back and forth between them to fix bake errors.
    • I guess the texturing deature of Marmoset Toolbag is not yet something that our studio is willing to jump over to, we have a lot of missing features from currently industry standard programs

    • It would be nice to make it easier to turn drawing processes into animations.

    Usability
    Marmoset
    I give it an 8 just for the sake that you can do pretty well bakes, pretty good realtime renders and those are like the key features of Marmoset Toolbag. But I dont give it a 10 because they advert a texturing tool while its still very raw on those terms, but overall excellent program for the cost

    We use substance mainly for the control over the bakes, none of the programs listed above which are other programs we used that can actually do bakes, are nearly as good as Marmoset Toolbag. I can vouch for Marmoset Toolbag as the best baking program out there till the date, giving you almost complete control of how the bake is gonna end up looking and achieving it really fast

    We broadly use the Adobe suite for other applications, so as Adobe tools have advanced, it is difficult to have an outlier in the toolkit, but Procreate still offers a lot of ease of use and competes with more formal Illustrator tools. We use Illustrator a lot for general design work once they pass initial concepting.

    Return on Investment
    Marmoset
    • so the baking process from start to a good finish is about 90% more controlled than any other baking program out there
    • Achieving a good bake is much more easy for our artist meaning less time per asset correcting issues
    • its incredibly easy to learn, in a matter of hours an artist can be doing good work. so less training hours needed
