For some reason, *some* .sbsar can't be loaded by Labs Substance Archive (Beta) COP node.

This sbsar file is valid. It can be loaded and used in Substance Designer. However, Houdini can't load it. Has anyone encountered this issue?

I've found the issue. Houdini can't handle .sbsar that uses Gradient Map with "smooth" option.

I wonder how this COP node works, exactly? Does it call the Substance Designer installed in my system? Or is it bundled with its own .sbsar implementation?
