I am trying to use the bakegeometrytextures node to resolve an issue I have with my scene.

I created a copnet at the object level and added the bakegeometrytextures node.

As you can see, it works in the scene view, but when I render it, the normal map is not rendered. I am using Redshift, but it also does not render in the Houdini Render view.

Is there a setting I must change to render this scene correctly?

Attached is an image and an example file.

Thanks

As tamte correctly pointed out, it's not the resolution, but the UVs.

Thanks for the detailed explanation. It makes sense. I shall experiment some more to find a solution.

likely because you don't have UVs on the remeshed geo since displacement map relies on that

you may have some luck with Labs UV Transfer to transfer vertex uv attribute from original geo to remeshed geo

or alternatively you can create new UVs and bake the new displacement map

Many thanks, I will give it a go.

I have tried increasing the Res/Voxel Size on the VDBfrompolygons but anything over 0.002 crashes my system

Attached is an example of the setup (VD.exr file reduced to 1024px from 4086px)
