Baking camera renders black

[ScottGelber]

I've followed the manual to the letter but my baking camera turns up black every time.
Everything is properly UV'd with no overlaps.

I have had success in other projects, but this one eludes me. This one is a rigged character, if that matters

Hi,
did you check the normal directions of the mesh?
If they are pointing inward, the result is black.
If normals are ok, please share more info, screenshots, or even the scene.

Hi Beppe
Yeah, i've checked the normals, they're all facing correctly (to prove the point reversing them doesn't help)

i've simplified the scene to the esstentials

Hi,
the issue is in the c4d Material tag, it ws set with Offset V = 100%.
Bringing back the value to 0 fixes the issue:

So everything was correct, just moved outside of frame buffer

Happy GPU rendering,

Oh that's a face-palm.

Appreciated as always.

Thank you Beppe.
