karma texture baker and disp maps for non-watertight surface April 21, 2026, 11:11 a.m.

maybe post a file?

to me it looks like it traces in both directions, at least when cage is not present, however I see an issue in Ds, which seems to always return positive values even for negative ray lookup areas

Vd and Vdt however seem correct, properly containing negative values when tracing below low res surface
in case you have sculpted on the hi res and you need a proper Vector Displacement you will need to use UV Match mode instead of Trace to allow for displacements in other than ±N direction

Would it be possible in theory to store the pre-anim and add it as a copy of animated joints to the orig-rig and using the local-matrix of each control so that the animator could still animate on top?
You can store a motion clip and do pretty much that
