I cannot put into words how helpful this was. I came into this video wondering if it was going to work in my case (one object with multiple materials) and immediately in the beginning you list every scenario in where this works and my question is answered. You explain every step in detail very well but also not exaggeratedly slow. You're one of the best tutorial channels on this site. Great stuff man.
I love your channel, there are no interruptions, you never beg for money and sponsors and you actually always make it to the point by slow explanation in a monotonic learning friendly way of presenting things. I guess you take a lot of pills every time you dull people around you. 👺
Wow thansk! I did this and then I decided to try just baking the metallic part last with the full lighting allowed (I can't use shininess for what I'm using it for) and it worked great!
Always have to come back to tuts for this. This one's gold! P.S. I have also experienced issues with SHEEN values causing bad bakes. Disable that similar to what you did with metals.
Hello Derek. Thanks for watching. Glad the video is helpful! Yeah, I've also found that if the Subsurface is turned up it can mess up baking the color map too.
Hello, thank you so much for this video, it was incredibly useful and I succeeded in baking my first texture! Also, you explain it very well, the video is well paced and easy to follow for non-English speakers. So thank you very very much! 💙
Namaste! from India. thats what i have been looking for. Thanx Ryan.....Next = I am gonna watch your baking playlist to learn more and both tutorials of 1hr on Procedural Nodes for beginners. you have covered everything on your channel regarding blender.
@@RyanKingArt HI! its a request, kindly make tutorial on upholstered & Boucle Fabric Texture for couch/Sofa - furniture advance level. pls try to make it asap. i know u have busy schedule, but pls try. Thnx
thank God I found you channel, I was publishing a model and it had multiple materials I needed to do it fast this video helped me a lot I wish every tutorial were just explained concepts simple and informative as you.
Why does my end result appear to have a lower resolution and makes everything appear metallic? The entire room I've made has this solid sheen just over everything. I had no metalness in any of the materials and Metal is at 0.
here's the thing, i've a problem with roughness map, it's turning in pure black square, and in a bottom of a screen, it say's: "baking map saved to iternal image" How to solve that?
hello there it doesn't work for me. i'm trying to bake multiple materials with one object, i do everything you say. yet, either it bake one material, or an other, but not all at once. then i get the image with just one island baked
ok, and is possible to get this map and expand them? for exemple, you have a avatar with one texture map, but you need the arms, legs, head and body in differents parts. thanks in advance
dude absolute hero. i was sitting there being a total fucking noob completely stumped as to why my materials had no colour in godot. such a great and clear tutorial
It only renders on of the materials, the rest (for example the place where wood is supose to be) is transparent on the baked image, there are also some black spots.
realy nice thanks just one question whats happen when i change the scale in the mapping , and when i baked its baking with the original size scale and not the one i want ?
Please help! I followed everystep in the tutorial but I get all my UV baked textures black. I just want to bake color, nothing fancy (i.e. roughness, metallic, etc.) I have selected all my objects and textures and also Direct and Indirect contributions are not checked. I am using blender 3.1.2. Anyone with this issue? how can I fix it?
Hey Ryan, I'm pretty sure I'm missing something or can't find it... But... I have one object with many materials, would like to bake all those materials/textures, to a duplicate of that object to one material/texture only... do you have a video about it ? thanks in advance
so im following along, trying to bake the texture of my own weapon, but my final yield has almost no color to it at all, only a few pieces of the mesh do. is this a common, easy fix problem?
I need some help with it, I did everything exactly as in the video, but nothing happens when the color is baked, and only writes "Baking map saved to internal image, save it externally or pack it" Instead of a texture, a transparent mosaic
How come when I ctrl + shift + t and select the 4 new maps for the new single material, I can never get the metallic to show up? It only wrangles up the color roughness and normal....
Also, When creating a brushed metal procedural texture where you crank up the scale so the lines get tighter together to make it look like brushed metal, the baking always scales it down so they are fat stripes, how do I fix this?
thank you so much for sharing that! i got a quest so if i buy the addon quick baker would it be possible to bake multipule objects into 1 image like you showed up in this video?
this videos really helpful, but im a little stuck, on the principled bsdf applyinh textures part, CTRL + SHIFT + T Doesn't do anything while I have principled bsdf selected.
I'm having the problem where UV textures are overlapping when baking, how do I fix that? Is there a way to asjust the boundaries of the bake like you can with the island margins?
I'm having trouble with my latest one first time doing a mesh with 4 materials but instead of coming out in the right sections. It ends up using the whole UV map on the mesh. Instead of the original assigned material spaces really confusing. Tried baking multi different ways but keeps doing the same thing.
I have two objects that have the same material. If I bake them separately there is no problem, if I select two then only one is baked. What is the problem?
Great tutorial, thanks! One thing bothers me in particular - how to keep proportions in UV? For example, I am working on a car which has a large caroserie (body) and many small parts. During smart UV or any other "auto" UV technic, those large areas loose their size comparing to those small parts. How to prevent that from happening? (I know, seams and manual editing - any easy, fast solution?)
So I'm trying to do this with one object but different sections I want different textures/materials. Is there a way to separate the one object into 2 and then do this?
I got a problem on unwrapping object. I imported an object first which has initial texture map. I divided it two selectors. I made one wood material, and when I using unwrap or smart project uv initial texture map changing. It is different now. I mean parts of the object being placed differently. Can I do unwrap keeping all shapes in their initial places and how?
Hi bro thank you so much. I was looking for how to bake all textures into one to my clients and you saved me But i have a question. What if i joined all the 3d my mesh firat then unwrap it the bake . Is it also going to work ? Thanks
Hello, I apologize in advance for this long comment but I have a question regarding this and I'm not knowledgeable enough about blender to ask it more succintly. I am wanting to make a background for use with realtime motion capture (ie: vtubing). In the program that I use for this right now (Animaze), you need to turn the ability to receive and cast shadows on with every single mesh in the background. The more meshes there are, the more draining it is on the GPU. My ideal background would have lots of books in it. Books that I have actually read, meaning they would all have their own textures. When I have made this and then put it in Animaze, there are way too many meshes to be rendering shadows for. I have tried so many things to join the meshes together, but then, when I take them into animaze, they end up being split. I have finally managed to get someone to explain to me that it is because everything has a separate texture. What I am wanting to do ideally, is to create a row of books that I customize with covers that I have chosen, then join them together into one mesh, where none of the internal surfaces that aren't visable are a part of the mesh any more AND where this is now only one texture that has been created from only the visible parts of the new object. Is the method you are describing in this video able to do this -- able to take multiple separate objects, with separate textures and create one single texture out of them and therefore be able to be read as a single mesh by a rendering program? Thank you very much!
dijja find any way out for such scenario? I'm facing the same issue - multiple materials for one character (torso, eyes, arms, legs, mouth, whatnot, etc, etc) but when I UV unwrap, it all goes haywire and then upon baking, it's a big flop - not to mention my PC ain't powerful enough for 16K pixels or above so just going with 8K pixels which takes about 3-5 mins to bake but the end result is just awful (cause the UV unwrap was pathetic ofcourse ***facepalm***) PS: I'm trying to bake using me CPU although me GPU is 6GB but I heard someone say in their tuts to use CPU so maybe that's why it's taking so long to bake but that UV unwrap though ***sigh***
Thank you for this video! I have a question though and cannot seem to find the answer anywhere. I've combined everything into one material like shown in the video but now I'm needing to export the texture on my model to use in Roblox studio. Would you be able to explain how you can bake all of the images onto one for export or what is needed to be done? Thanks so much!!
what if i already baked each individual object before all this? when i unwrap them all in edit most of it goes black? as in i already baked each item of the axe and now want them to be joined and baked as one.
I have crrated a glass shader with imperfection and i wont to extort it for unity but i have no idea that how can i bake glass texture in to a image so that i can use that in unity. Please if you know about this help me
Hello, thank you for your video. I was wondering how you would apply multiple textures if you had a single mesh model? I import STL files into Blender and they are a single mesh.
Great Vid as always! My main concern using this would be if it would improve rendering time / rendering recources? I mean will this help to render more complex Models that has a lot of different materialed applied and make it faster?

So is necessary bake the materials type by one, is not possible bake everything in one like use "combined"

would i also need to do the metallic and roughness maps despite not being used in my model?
Thx !! love it

Great tuto, thanks.
But Ctrl+Shift+T doesn't work for me. I tried all leters haha. Need help please
did you make sure to turn on the node wrangler addon?
I'm having the problem where UV textures are overlapping when baking, how do I fix that? Is there a way to asjust the boundaries of the bake like you can with the island margins?
Yes, there is a setting to change that. Go to the bake settings on the right side panel. Then go to Margin, and change the size pixels.

select faces you want to have specific materials, and assign it. Then same for other mats
