wowgetoffyourcellphone Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 (edited) Someone, like @LordGood or @stanislas69 should teach @The Undying Nephalim how we do the AO maps. Exporting the 2nd UV and such. Quote Gods! I wish we could get 0 A.D.'s nature to look like that.

I do know how to make Ambient Occlusion maps in maya, but Pyrogenesis continued to crash on me when I included them in my files. I decided to not bother with them in the meantime. Unfortunately a log is not generated: Perhaps there is something wrong with my AO map: hylian_castleA_ao.dds I am using the player_trans_ao_parallax_spec.xml material, and yes I have a spec map too.

wowgetoffyourcellphone Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 You need a 2nd UV in the model for the AO map. Do you have that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have that? no I do not, does the UV need a specific name for the engine to determine that it's for the AO map? I assume this is the same case for spec maps?

I assume this is the same case for spec maps? Spec maps use the same basic UV as the diffuse map. The engine automatically detects the 2nd UV and uses that for your pre-rendered AO map. I don't think it needs a special name, but I could be wrong on that point. This thread may help: "create a second UV coordinates" looks to be the relevant info.

Hmm, I've followed the tutorial and gotten to the point where I click Bake, but Blender gives me the error "No objects or images found to bake to."

Stan` Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 You have to be in object mode (press tab) when baking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stan` Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Okay that means that the texture wasn't linked to the model. To do so go in edit mode select everything (press A) and apply the texture to the model by selecting it in the uv window Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stan` Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 In the uv window at the bottom there is a drop-down for textures. Pick the one you created. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
