[Decimate To Target + Bake](https://www.youtube.com/embed/OQNlx13QqTk?si=SkDnS7HreXvysOFP) | | [**Create Billboard**](/asset-transformer-studio/2026.5.0/api/python/algo_functions.md#createbillboard) | Create a billboard (textured planes) out of a selection of parts | | [**Voxelize**](/asset-transformer-studio/2026.5.0/api/python/algo_functions.md#voxelize) | Automatically generates a [voxelization](https://developer.nvidia.com/content/basics-gpu-voxelization) representation out of the external skin of the selected parts | | [**Marching Cubes**](/asset-transformer-studio/2026.5.0/api/python/algo_functions.md#marchingcubes) | Automatically generates a [marching cubes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marching_cubes) representation out of the meshes of the selected Parts | | [**Convex Decomposition**](/asset-transformer-studio/2026.5.0/api/python/algo_functions.md#convexdecomposition) | Creates a new set of convex meshes approximating the given meshes | | [**Proxy Mesh**](/asset-transformer-studio/2026.5.0/api/python/algo_functions.md#proxymesh) | Automatically generates a proxy mesh (or remeshing) out of the current selection | | [**Replace By**](/asset-transformer-studio/2026.5.0/api/python/algo_functions.md#replaceby) | Use to replace a selection of occurrences with another occurrence, its Bounding Box, a Convex Hull envelop or a primitive | | [**Bake Texture Maps**](/asset-transformer-studio/2026.5.0/api/python/algo_functions.md) | Create textures maps (map types: Diffuse, Normal, Opacity, Roughness, Specular, Metallic, AO, Part ID, Material ID…) out of the selected parts, providing they have normalized UVs.**TIP**: By default, maps are baked with a padding (or "dilation") of a few pixels, defined in the `Padding` parameter. It is also possible to bake maps with an "infinite" padding, in order to avoid issues like [mipmap bleeding](https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/texture-mipmaps-introduction.html) when seeing a model from a distance. To do so, set the value in the **Padding** parameter to `-1`. | | [**Combine Materials in Textures**](/asset-transformer-studio/2026.5.0/api/python/algo_functions.md#combinematerials) | Combines materials into one baked material, assigned to the selection (no parts merging) |
