One workaround I've been using is to input the map I want to bake into the diffuse/albedo, and use the diffuse material pass to get such map.
Can anyone elaborate on this workaround more? I don't understand how ones gets a PBR Metallic map from this technique.

Are there any plans to implement a ...

I do this for any map that octane doesn't have a pass or info pass.

I export a lot of client work for sketchfab, and unity, PBR maps are required to ...
