TennoGen **Tenno! **

We’ve created a custom shader for Marmoset Toolbag that adds support for Warframe’s texture maps such as tint maps and animated emissives.

This shader works with both specular and metalness workflows. Users should note that this shader does not include custom lighting calculations; it simply handles texture manipulation for easy preview of Warframe art assets using Toolbag’s PBR.

**For full details and to download the Shader, please head to the official guide here: **https://www.warframe.com/steamworkshop/help/index.php?page=warframepbr-marmoset-shader

**To ask any questions or report any issues, please use this forum thread: **https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1323579-tennogen-warframepbr-marmoset-shader/

TennoGen **Attention TennoGen artists! **

We've updated the Styanax files on the Steam Workshop to address the changes to tints on the live game as well as to fix an issue with the skirt material.

If you are planning to create something with Styanax and you downloaded his files before September 27th, please head to the Steam Workshop and redownload the new versions!

We've updated the Forums & Steam post accordingly but please spread the word if you know of any TennoGen artists currently experimenting with Styanax.

Hi Tenno! small policy change for TennoGen Submissions as it relates to spoiler etiquette with a certain character who debuted in The New War! Artists will no longer have to keep this character out of screenshots & titles as we ourselves at DE have shown the character in promo material for Angels of the Zariman and our Duviri Paradox demo!

TennoGen: The New War Spoiler Policy UPDATE

Greetings Tenno! It’s been one year since The New War released and introduced the Drifter into the world of Warframe.

Citrine Files are now available for TennoGen artists! How will you reimagine the latest Warframe? 💎

NOTE: At this time, TennoGen artists will not be able to use Citrine’s gem texture for helmets and skins. The crystal effect found on Digital Extremes’ version of Citrine requires custom shader math that is not replicable for TennoGen -- as a result, artists should plan their designs to not feature this unique element for Citrine. Gems are still welcome, but unfortunately we cannot apply the custom sparkle as seen on her default!

Voruna has also been available since December 2022. 🌙

Hello TennoGen artists!

We've just released a web version of the TennoGen Workshop from TennoCon 2024!

We understand that not all TennoGen artists can attend TennoCon in person. While the workshop primarily targeted a casual & curious audience — not necessarily established artists — we respect that many TennoGen contributors wanted to know what was shown and discussed!

You can see the presentation here: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1ldy4PkH-ZcDuiBzafZL64aHU1SBCa9kv/

(Be sure to read the "Presenter Notes" and not just the slides!)

In addition to a general rundown of the TennoGen program, this presentation includes...

  • Advice on self critiquing your own work, with Ernesto Alvarez (Senior Weapons Artist)
  • Self reviewing a previously rejected design, with Nikita Leshakov (Principal Weapons Artist & TennoGen Supervisor)
  • Self reviewing a 2015 design, with Kaz Adams (Warframe Weapons Lead & TennoGen Supervisor)
  • Common reasons for rejection, and why DE might not provide feedback
  • & more!

1.0.6 has released! https://www.warframe.com/steamworkshop/exporting-tennogen-files

🔸 Added a basic Import Package operator to help verify exports
🔸 Switch to Tennogen Scene now links existing collections instead of just the objects (Scene hierarchy should now be preserved)
🔸 Tennogen Scene default backdrop is now a neutral gray (Blue was matching our internal preview window within the game editor but gray is better for general authoring)
🔸 Added a mesh export check for UV bounds. UV coordinates for exported meshes need to be within the 0-1 range
🔸 Added mesh export checks for rare errors / edge cases in mesh authoring
🔸 Fixed a minor typo during Glass material export
🔸 Fixed Glass material Tint mask option, now maps tints to correct channels

1.0.7 has been released! https://www.warframe.com/steamworkshop/exporting-tennogen-files

🔸 Materials now have an "Export" property (displayed as a new button in the material list) in case there's materials in your .blend file you'd like to keep but don't want to export. Any materials assigned to exported meshes will be included regardless of this setting to avoid errors.
🔸 Fixed an error that allowed the exporter to write duplicate files.
🔸 Fixed a minor error in the exporter UI panel script.
🔸 Images loaded via the addon will have their alpha_mode set to 'CHANNEL_PACKED' by default (to prevent tint maps getting read incorrectly).
