  This is quite possibly the best money I have ever spent for Blender. The default method of baking in Blender is so janky. Simplebake makes it...well, simple.

  Really great addon for blender!.
  I am relatively new to modelling 3d in blender and wanted to export my models to unreal engine.
  Really early on i noticed that baking in blender out of the box is rather inconvenient.

  Simple Bake is the first addon i found for baking (and first addon i bought for blender at all) but i can really recomment it to everyone.

  I use it for baking high-poly models and also baking from high-poly to low-poly. Both works fine without any problems.

  A must have, fast, it worked 100% of times so far!

  I was just now doing something and tried to mess with the baking in Blender, I had forgotten how bad it is and also apparently forgot to write a review despite using this addons for months now, I came back here to read the FAQ to check if it could bake LOD Texture as I was having issues following the right step with Blender.

  Needless to say even that worked like a charm and very quick first try and I am no "guru", if you want it too it also saves all the maps for you in your project folder.

  There is absolutely no reason not to purchase this item, if you export regularly to game engine or just bake a lot it is so quick and simple!

  I use this with the PBR Texture Tool called Mask Tool, available here on Blender Market, together are the reason I do not use Substance Painter.

  Thank you for making and maintaining this addon!

  It kind of does what it says. You still need to prep the scene. I wish it were more automated. At least I donated to the cause. It doesn’t even bake UDIM maps.

  Simplebake is simply the best baking add-on out there, and I've bought and tried them all.

  For me, this is like the #1 add-on someone new to Blender needs, if they have to do any type of baking at all. I use it for the PBR workflow, to get complex materials into Unity/Unreal and I also use it to do Cycle baking (for baking lighting to textures).

  The creator has been quick to respond and is open to suggestions. I had a few that I mentioned, not really expecting him to do anything with, and within a few weeks, they were completely integrated!

  Thanks for the great add-on and support.

  Hey Alex - this is brilliant, thank you. Thank you also for the YouTube videos covering how to use SimpleBake, and the suggestions you made for background baking and for helping me test it. Appreciate all that, and the review! Cheers

  I'm currently investigating how best to create and export gltfs from blender and SimpleBake has reall helped take care of creating new models with everything baked ready to export.

  Baking in blender is insane and makes you go insane. So Simplebaked has really helped me avoid ending up in an asylum.

  When working with gtlfs there is one feature missing from Simplebake, thats the ability to include the AO in the PBR bake option. The GLTF exporter supports the ao map if you provide a custom shaderNodeGroup with its input set to Occulusion.

  I'm in the process of adding this feature in as it will complete the process for my project.

  I had really bad time with Blender's cycles baking setup. With this addon cycles baking works great. I might need added PBR baking features later too. I did lose sample progress count but this is apparently limitation of Blender's SDK for now and I did run into a few minor issues. The author added status for % of textures complete when I complained about lack of progress bar! It makes background bakes nicer with some status on completion.

  Thanks for the review! And for the suggestion of a % progress indicator. I think it's a big improvement to usability. Cheers.
