This video was EXTREMELY helpful. It's chock full of little tips to make the process easier. I didn't know that tip about using emit!

Fantastic tutorial! The right level of detail and pace to actually follow up the description (whereas others just fly the mouse across the screen or use the shortcuts without calling them out). This is the topic I was looking for. Thank you so much, Ryan! I’ll sure be supporting your channel.

Finally! I've been waiting years for such a valuable and easy baking tutorial.
Thank you!

Your baking tutorials helped a lot more than others I've watched finally figured out how to unwrap and create textures to finish my first thing I've made on blender.

Hi thank you very much for the amazing tutorial, really clear!
I'm using blender 4.1 and it seems a little different, I do not have the viewer node. I tried to bake the metallic map in 2 ways. First method i used directly an emission shader (following what you where saying in the tutorial). Second method i connected the metallic color ramp to the emission input in the principled BSDF and i turned the strength to 1. It seems that i get the same result with both methods but i'm a beginner and i just wanted to be sure that what i'm doing is correct. Also there is a new option in the baking, the "View From", i kept the default "Above surface"

This tutorial was awesome, I always got confused with baking but you made it seem really easy. Also, the timestamps were really useful!

This is just the tutorial I've been looking for. I'm finally starting to get my head around baking textures. Thank you!

Thank you for the tip on turning the metallic value to zero! I've been using Blender for years but was tearing my hair out trying to troubleshoot my black bake texture. You rock!

[diogolscc]

i literally searched for that yesterday and here you are helping me once again

[rosegraham]

OMG thankyou so much! i am modding for the sims 4 and the offical tutorial page had a ( slightly not very, ) outdated tutorial on baking and uv editing, since the compatible version has finally been updated to past 3.0 versions of blender. thankyou for claryfying features that have been added in these ( newer and so much better versions of the program !)

[raoulette]

I'm really sorry that I can no longer assume my contribution to your superb work, but in Europe everyday things are becoming too expensive.
but I will always follow your lessons. thank you.
