V-Ray Baker Tool | Output path mismatch
Hello there,
Just wanted to bring up an issue with the V-Ray Baker SOP https://forums.chaos.com/forum/v-ray-for-houdini-forums/v-ray-for-houdini-announcements/1061926-v-ray-baker-tool-now-in-beta
It seems that there is some output path mismatch that leads to not saving AOVs.
The Animation output path follows:
${HIP}/baked/${HIPNAME}.${OS}.${AOV}.$F4.png
... and the ROP file path (in the 'Bake' tab, not 'Images') follows:
${HIP}/bake/${HIPNAME}_<OBJ_NAME>.${F4}_<UDIM>.exr
So in the end the image gets saved only as an EXR in the 'bake' folder and skips the AOV (which makes sense, given how the path is structured).
Not sure if that's how it's supposed to be but it's a bit misleading. Once I referenced the 'Output' in the 'Bake / Main / File Path' channel, it behaves as expected.
Nonetheless, great little SOP so thank you for that!
