Tiny bump, but actually, I'd like to clarify some things that came up while talking to a few artist: 1. I'm not really interested in joining some unity/ue generic project. No offense to your project, it's just that I'm not motivated to create "yet another..." 2. Yes, I really want to create a ray tracing game. I understand…
Hey guys, I am a little lost when it comes to baking even though I read up on all the threads by @EarthQuake and the Toolbag Baking Tutorials. Also I was watching the good ol' Handplane Baker videos.

I'm still relatively new to Maya scripting, so I would like to know if this is feasible. - Take one or more objects in the scene - Done - Get their input/history attributes - Done - Save those to a variable.
