Blender: high poly to low poly - decimation, baking normals and ambient occlusion

[@josemartins-game]

So far, best video on the topic.

Thank you for this. Have a good one.

Dont forget to set "CPU" to "GPU" in the cycles options, so the rendering goes faster !

this is amazing exactly what I am looking for! thank you for sharing this

Bravo, excellent tutorial! I imported a Sketchfab model with several Materials. How do I proceed with the Diffuse(color) that I want to transfer to a low poly? The result does not work because the textures of the different Materials intermingle.

How do you go about changing the uv's ? If i unwrap after remeshing womt it ruin the normal map ?

thank you very much!

With zbrush or substance you can handle a 10 million or 20 million polygone baking without fancy graphic card with zbrush as long your ram is enough to make a10k or 8000 face without any problem, on blender as long as you have a fast cpu or gpu and a lot or ram it's possible but not so easy to do it can stop baking even on a 16 go of ram computer.

Nice

my blender closes... why?

[@toastercosmique4390]

baking with cycles can be very heavy for your computer... Go to your rendering options and change cpu to gpu, and make sure in your blender properties that you're using OptiX

@@toastercosmique4390 it depends on what graphic card you are using, optix is better for rtx, cuda for GTX and the other one is for amd i think
