[Q] Simple AO to Vertex Colors?

Noth · Mar 2020

Curious if people have smooth workflows for this. Maya makes it a pain. Mental Ray 2018 seems like the best option, but the quality it best is iffy.

3DCoat makes a nice lowpoly AO but then I can't bake to verts.

Any suggestions?

Also easy in 3ds Max. Vertex Paint modifier has a bake tool.
