Hi.
What’s the workflow for baking AO maps for customizable armors or clothes (adding/subtracting items like chest straps, pouches, scarfs, etc)?
Thanx.

You could bake ao from each item separately and then combine ao maps from current items. Blending function for combining AO maps should be multiply but also minimum can work.
You can do that combine step with Draw to render target functionality.

So, it would be something like this?

Yeah just like that. Not sure how smooth workflow for that will be thought.
