Seams settings #151

Open BooneAllred opened 2 years ago

BooneAllred commented 2 years ago

So after doing around 50 bakes and trying to adjust different settings to get rid of edge seems between my geometry I am at a lost on how to fix them. I understand this is a addon that is in the works, but it would be nice for some kind of documentation on what in the world settings do in Lightmapper. Is a higher setting better for the Dilation Margin or is a lower one better? What about unwrap margin on the object itself. It just all seems like a guessing game in trying to figure out optimal settings to get a good bake for your lighting. Any insight or help would be appreciated.

Hi,

Can you show a screenshot of the seams? There isn't a lot of settings for correcting seams other than doing the lightmap UV's manually. I presume you're just using the auto-unwrap feature (Smart project?)

I admit, I have been quite bad at adding documentation. If you want, you can reach out to me on Discord @ Naxela#7255
