but also substance designer, used mostly for creating environmental textures and patterns, can just generate textures based on prompts and reference images. Is that what they used? If so, a lot of other games should maybe give the same notices

webpage from https://helpx.adobe.com/ featuring text that says "text-to-texture" with an example of flat oak wood being typed into a text box and images being generated underneath. A realistic 3D rendering of a chello is on the right of the image.

webpage from https://helpx.adobe.com/ featuring text that says "image-to-texture" with an example of a single image of tree bark put into a box on the left of the image, with four wood textures being generated underneath. A realistic 3D rendering of a tree's bark in a forest environment is on the right of the image.

It was an absolute honor to be able to work on the top 8 intros for @evo.gg again this year. Always one of the highlights of my year and it’s amazing to see the crowd loving something you’ve put so much love into yourself.
