TexTools for Blender

bkjernisted · August 11, 2020, 11:20pm

SPYNeox, up until now I have never baked anything in Blender so I don’t know.

Doesn’t seem to work on my end. I use EZ Baker, has the same baking tools as in TexTools but works with 2.83. It also has match by name like TexTools

@yan.kansky Is textools stable in 2.90?

SAIINDIA · August 13, 2020, 4:13am

what are u trying to bake? Baking works fine for me.(Normal maps,AO maps)

yan.kansky · August 13, 2020, 6:10am

Everything seems fine! I don’t bake with this addon thoguh… The only problem I see is “Align Island By Edge” tool. The same thing was on previous version of Blender before the fix. Too bad I don’t know how to code…

The baking options in TexTools just gives errors for me

@mrgesy Ah I’ll take note of that thanks

Is this safe to use with Blender 2.9?
This is like the best addon there is out there for texturing.
Thanks!

I just submitted a pull request for @SavMartin that fixes Align Island By Edge.

Thx, @Symstract for this fix, and for your collaboration to make this addon event better.
@yan.kansky, download the new version with Aling Island patch already included

Wow, thank you both!

I get these errors when trying to bake something in 2.9. I wouldn’t be surprised if I’ve done something incorrectly, but so far I haven’t been able to work past this.

Uninstall the textools you have already in blender and install this one from here.

Thanks for the info - that worked great! I see now you’ve been doing this addon a great service, thank you for keeping it functional, much appreciated.

atekdigital · September 12, 2020, 3:29pm

When click on Rectify getting this below error. It flat the uv but giving the error. Im using 2.9 current release on website.

SavMartin · September 13, 2020, 10:09pm

That happens cause you are in the wrong workspace, you must do it in UV_Editing

so3Datel · September 22, 2020, 11:29am

Unfortunately Align World not working

Peron.blend (928.8 KB)

Michael_Knubben · September 24, 2020, 2:00pm

Any chance you could change this? Not everyone uses the default workspaces.

Darknoodles · September 25, 2020, 12:28pm

Well, it’s not much the workspace, but the region you are in. In the screenshot, Textools is displayed in the Image Paint region instead of UV editor.
You can in theory use it in any workspace as long as the region you are calling the operators from is the UV editor

Michael_Knubben · September 25, 2020, 12:37pm

Ah, I misunderstood then! I haven’t been using 2.8 long, myself, so I haven’t had a reason to use this new Textools yet.

SavMartin · September 25, 2020, 5:25pm

Thanks to the contribution to the code of @feilen https://github.com/feilen, now we have the possibility to add the ability to bake standard PBR maps

Download the latest version from here and install it once you have deactivated the built-in TexTools addon:
