Render Baking in 2.5 not working?

[agorodesign]

Hi,
Does baking currently work in 2.5? My object is UV mapped and selected, but the render still turns out black. The same scene bakes just fine in 2.49.

I've uploaded a simple test case: http://www.agorodesign/temp/vray-bake.zip

BTW, I just bought the exporter and proxy creator for your store. Thank you very much for your hard work, bdancer!

Hi,

You need to point to the object name : There's a text field in render tab to specify object name and dilation (padding)
After you checked "bake" in 'render' rollout, the bake rollout wil appear near the bottom of the render tab ... it's easy to miss (and it has changed from 2.49 , took me a while to find the rollout)

Ahhh thanks Nizu, It is very easy to miss! It's working now!

Perhaps it would be better if the bake settings appeared right under the bake button when pressed, like clicking "detect vray" on the Exporter rollout. As it is, if you have one or two rollouts open beneath the Render rollout, you don't even see the Bake rollout has been added to the list.
