TextureBake Lab

Standalone PBR Texture Baker: Ambient Occlusion, Normal Maps & Curvature

GPU-accelerated PBR texture map baking station. Generates world-space and tangent-space normal maps, ray-traced ambient occlusion, surface curvature, and position gradient maps from high-poly 3D models to low-poly game geometry in seconds.

Engineering Specifications & Features

Hardware-accelerated ray tracing for high-poly to low-poly detail transfer

Bake complete PBR texture sets: Tangent Normal, Object Normal, Ambient Occlusion, Curvature, World Space Position, ID maps

Support for Wavefront OBJ, FBX, and GLTF 2.0 3D mesh formats

Anti-aliased sampling up to 8K resolution (8192x8192) with customizable cage offset distances

Automated UV island dilation eliminating black seam artifacts in game engines

Headless command-line mode for automated studio 3D asset generation pipelines

Graphical Interface (GUI) Architecture

3D viewport with PBR material preview (diffuse, roughness, metallic, normal), high/low poly overlay display, cage inflation slider, and bake progress indicators.

Headless CLI Reference & Execution

TextureBake Lab includes a headless command-line binary ready for automation pipelines, cron daemons, and CI/CD runners:

# Headless command execution:
texturebake --high sculpt.obj --low game.obj --res 4096 --bake-ao --bake-normal --out-dir ./pbr/
# Cryptographic node-lock activation:
texturebake --activate YOUR-CROCKFORD-KEY

Core Architecture & Asymmetric Security

C++17 engine utilizing compute shaders (Vulkan/OpenGL) and multi-threaded BVH acceleration for sub-second 4K bakes.
