It allows artists to bake procedural bevels into production-ready texture maps (normal, AO, curvature, ID maps) directly in Blender without altering geometry. Key features include baking selected objects or entire collections, merging multiple objects into one texture set, resolution and output control, an Explode system to prevent projection artifacts, and export to Marmoset Toolbag via vertex color masks. The tool targets hard-surface modeling, game development, and concept art workflows. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
