      Next tool is Marmoset Toolbag 3.

      Marmoset is a software that predominantly is used for real-time rendering, but it can do some other things as well.

      And so we use Marmoset essentially for baking and what that means is we take a high poly model and we would bake certain details of it into texture maps like the normals or the ambient occlusion and things like that.

      And so what we can do is we can capture details from a high poly mesh and then put it on a low poly mesh and give the low poly mesh the appearance that it looks, the appearance that it has details that it actually doesn't, right?

      And so this is a pretty common technique to make low poly meshes look better than they actually are essentially.
