Thanks Drew for trying it out.

Diffuse pass is definitely a good one. We will add it in the next update.

Diffuse pass?

Hi Priyabrata.
Really cool script, very useful.
It would be great if you could also render out a diffuse pass. I'm rendering a bunch of objects into "flat" textures, and I'm current rendering the diff by hand and tweaking the size afterwards.

Cheers

Hi 3dwannab,

Thank you for trying the script out. We will definitely look into implementing the fix. To reduce the latency of rendering, we did not implement the render configuration saving. But will do that. Look forward to the future update.

Thanks.

Corona Render support

Hi, I love the script but when I have the corona renderer set the script changes to scanline and doesn't give a warning. So, would it be possible to it save the .rps file to a temp file and location and then reload after it has completed?

Hi Asadar,

No problem. The tool does allow user to create canvas based on pre-UVed meshes. So we can implement gradient map to such canvases.

Thanks for the idea.

Gradient Map

Hi,

Sorry for the false good idea. Gradient map isn't a good idea for your tool because it needs an original shape.

But your tool is still good and very useful !
