  Some of the best procedural wood materials, but the baking experience leaves a lot to be desired. The addon is set up so you bake the material to textures for the object you are actively working. This addon does not seem to have any support for high-low baking workflows, or at least not that I can see from my experimenting and the included documentation. This is a significant drawback and limits the uses for this addon.

  Hi there,

  Thank you for the compliment on the quality of the procedural materials!

  I think there is some confusion regarding both the tool and the workflow:

  Wrong Addon:
  The baking tool you are referring to is Sanctus Bake. This is actually a separate, free addon included with Sanctus Library, not Wood Works. It seems you are reviewing Wood Works based on the functionality of a tool included in another product.

  Material vs. Geometry Baking:
  The baking tool was created to solve a specific problem: Blender's native process for baking procedural materials to PBR textures is extremely tedious and complex. This tool simplifies that specifically for Material Baking. It was never intended for High-to-Low Poly baking (Geometry workflow). That is a completely different workflow.

  Most material libraries do not offer any baking solution at all. I included this as a bonus to help users convert procedural nodes to textures, not to replace a full High-to-Low geometry baking pipeline.

  If you have questions on how to combine your high-poly bakes with these materials, feel free to reach out via support!

  Best, Sanctus
