[solved] Padding

Hi,

I am currently baking Beauty textures in Corona using projection. I’m hitting a problem however.
With projection ticked, edge padding does not work at all. Is this a known issue or a something that should be working?

Thanks so much

So I found a work around, set up projection as usual, disable all rendering the low poly object, then turn projection off in R2T menu (keep the projection modifier on low obj however).

Not ideal but workable.

Projection mapping is currently not officially supported by Corona. We may support it in the future (along with some more RTT fixes/improvements), however it is low priority for us. The main reason is that whole RTT is an ancient, badly documented feature of 3ds Max.

Wow, i didn’t even know that projection is working in Corona at all! I could use it couple weeks ago. Although it seems from my quick tests, that it still has quite a few problems.

It kinda works, but it gives completely wrong padding, not usable in most situations. I would suggest to save bake with alpha and do the padding in photoshop - there is free photoshop plugin from Flaming Pear - Solidify, which makes excellent padding in one click.

It might be ancient and somewhat awkward to use, but it’s the only tool that can bake Corona lighting onto models and that’s quite important feature to have. Please don’t abandon idea to fully support projection baking with Corona sometime in the future! The sooner the better ;]
