How to create specular map

So that wouldn’t be the answer to the problem…Īll materials of one object have specular value, indeed, but unless told otherwise, e.g with the use of a specular map, any 3D program will apply the same value of specularity along the surface of the model. PS: I know that one can use the AO map as a starting point for a specular map, but it would still ignore the available spec-settings that are already defined in the material settings.

So in this matter I can only ask kindly, hoping the best) I try to contribute to the blender community in other ways possible compatible with my skills. (Sorry, I really can’t solve this problem. Is there someone interested in this feature? Or am I missing sth? I guess there is no solution to this problem right now, so a script that could be integrated into the blender trunk later would be necessary. It would be awesome to have this feature, because if you have a model with several different materials you have already set the specular values… but you can’t transfer them to a single map to be used in an external game engine.

I am not skillful enough, so I thought I might suggest a useful feature for blender, hoping that some coder who is, might like the idea or the challenge…Īt the moment, you can bake all kinds of maps in blender: AO, normals, textures, displacement and full render.īut there is no possibility to bake specular maps (
