Occlusion maps are used to create ambient occlusion (dark areas don't receive ambient light and appear darker than white areas - basically it is used to emphasize the shadow parts in a model). What you were doing in this video is more of a roughness map (or specular map, both basically control the reflectivity of the surface - roughness map tells what parts are rough and what parts are smooth/mirror-like, specular tells which parts are diffused and which parts reflective but in modern PBR shading usually everything is treated as reflective, only the roughness of the reflection differs). :) But good advice still!

While your voice audio was low. It wasn't too bad and was able to follow everything to get all the textures I needed. Thanks a ton.

This tutorial really helped a lot, Thanks

I always see demos like this where the greyscale image converts nicely into a normal or occlusion map but often, the darker bits of an image are simply more saturated shades, not darker or lower areas. For instance, if you are dealing with a human face, the eyebrows will be dark, but should definitely NOT be recessed.

we could generate normal map in Photoshop too, going to filter>3d>generate normal map.

I guess a photoshop macro which does this in a single click for an entire folder (and manual pollishing afterwards) is faster to create 100 normalmaps for 100 heightmaps than going through the proces in the video a 100 times...

Great video!

Hightmap is also known as a Roughness it can also be called a gloss map except gloss is the inverted Rough color, also a good option for exporting is as a .DDS-5 it will contain more info at half the file size and is preferred for Game Engines as its automatedly rendred by the GPU and not needing to be converted from the CPU first.

English not clear but I was still able to understand. Thank you very much, I need this

Baking a normal texture like this is probably the best fake way of doing it other than modelling.

Not sure why you got so many dislikes on this. The normal mapping in Blender is similar to the projection mapping in Max. Both are technically baked. Your other techniques are great! I've used all sorts of methods to make maps out of my photos. For procedural textures, the methods are faster of course. And the plethora of normal map filters in Filter Forge are all pretty fun too.

When creating a normal map from photos, will you create it from the albedo map? Would you like to make the photo as it is as a normal map?

Superb :)

Nice tutorial

you could use materials for applying your datamap textures.. it would be more efficient

Nc work sir.

ty for the tutorial. Info on how to make these maps was hard for me to find. Turn up your mic audio, and put something between your mic and your mouth, or move the mic further away. You're constantly blowing into the mic. That should make the audio better.

I could see this being saved as a "macro script". I think Photoshop has macros right? It would be a complete video do demonstrate "image original" -> macro -> create 4,5,6 layers of different "maps" and saving them. It's all about setting values. If you had to do this for a couple dozen materials it could take a couple days just to get mapping images, ugh what a pain. Do you have experience in macros in Ps?

I loved this video Very simple and accurate method

Thanks to you

thank you god :D

Or you could just use ShaderMap. It'll generate all those maps as soon as you import your image.

Or just go to Google and generate Normal, Roughness and other maps online for 1 min with any site Google will offer )

You can just Undo the Effects by pressing ctrl+Z after exporting the PNG rather than opening and closing the document over and over again.

Ad an image to the material of the selected object but don't connect it to any node, if your object have multiple materials then add same image to all materials and make sure the image node is selected,then hit bake

@@archviz_alicia3279 you need to add a texture node with that image you want to bake on, and keep that texture node selected while baking, if your model have multiple materials make sure you add same texture node to all materials and select them to make them active, best way to do that is copy the node and keep pasting on each material one by one, that should automatically make that node selected, also you don't need to connect that node to anything, it just needs to be there, it's weird i know but that's all we have

when he realises the image has a watermark :(

is there also a free software for this? or is it possible in a free photo editing program like paint.net?

If you have multiple material assigned you need to place same texture node in all materials otherwise it won't work, and make sure that texture node is selected in every material

Doesn't work. Blender says 'no active image found'

Yes we don't need to buy awesome bump or crazy bump, but we need to pay like $500 for photoshop. Don't understand how people just happen to have this program like it's completely free or something and nobody complains.

Occlusion map is a black n white mal that represents surface contacts, edges creases etc, it can be used to add contact shadows, dirt and dust accumulation, scratches wear and tear etc, reflection map represents areas that are reflective, white means reflective and black means rough or non reflective, any value in between will have mixed effect, now you can use substance painter and it will generate it for you along with other maps

Make sure to add a material on the object you want to bake on and add a texture node, in that texture node select the target image(blank image ready to get bake data), finally don't forget to select that texture node before hitting bake its very important

You can also use Displacement Maps for Height map kzread.info/dash/bejne/i4Z_0c2nmbyfg84.html

I have suggestion for blender 2.8 users. This tutorial is good but in 2.8 version u have to make a material in this empty plane which u want to bake. Without this you can't bake and also u will get the nottification that "No active image found, add a material or bake to an external file". Probably it is obvious for many of you, but for retarded people like me it may be useful. Cheers!
