Support for baking VRaySpecularMap in VRay GPU

[aaron_kim]

Hi all,

I'd like to have support for baking VRaySpecularMap in the GPU renderer. Currently, the GPU renderer supports VRaySpecular as a render element, but not as a texture baking element. The CPU renderer supports VRaySpecular as both a render element and a texture baking element. It will considerably reduce overhead using the GPU renderer.

Thanks

Thanks for the post and welcome to the forums!

We will get to this soon, it is already on the roadmap

Best,
Muhammed

Dear Muhammed,
I have some additional bake elements, should I make a new thread or can I reply them here? Since we plan to switch from CPU to GPU for texturebaking or give it at least a try, we would need the following bake elements supported by GPU (if technically possible). Please give me a hint if this will never be the case due to how GPU rendering is internally build:

• VRayRawTotalLightingMap (since the diffuse part is not baked, but stays in original diffuse color textures)
• VRayRoughnessMap
• VRayMtlReflectIORBake
• VrayRawReflectionFilterMap

Thanks and kind regards
Robert

Just so you know, support for these elements is on the GPU roadmap.

Thank you so much.
