1 Advanced Member Koray Posted April 28, 2023 Author Advanced Member Share Posted April 28, 2023 (edited) This post was recognized by Carlosan! Koray was awarded the badge 'Helpful' and 1 points. Tested it works. Notes to self if I forget since nobody else replied: - File/Export/ Export Depth Along Y - Make sure Y (top) is up - Uncheck everything - Patch size 100. Higher makes small, lower almost crashed 3dc - Be aware even though I select tif, 3dc tries to export as exr. tif is 32bit still. - Can go 16K, huge file size. Nice - Important: Zb couldnt read 32bit tif, needed to convert to 16 bit in PS. Displaces nice. - Exr export is a mess. Avoid for now. Havent tried other formats.

Question
Koray
I tried to create a depth render but couldnt figure out how. I rotated the object to show you there is something there.
You may also call it an alpha or a height map.
Is there a way to create a black and white render with height info in the render room?
renamed to height :)
