Are you trying to display it inside blender? I can do a video(no audio)tutorial that will run through the basics.

Give me a heads up.
On a side note...
Ventilator, do you plan on including HMP support?

Hi Nowherebrain, your good video tutorials are well known!
Thank you very much for your offer, but making a video seems to much of an effort for just me being too dumb to find a single switch or such.

I loaded up a small test file, maybe, it is the easiest way to have a look at it and point me to what I missed to do.

I will look at it.

I assume the kissenfischbaked.tga is the shadow map?...it was not included...no problem.
you have the basic setup right, 2 textures/one material.
on the UV maps in the mesh edit stuff set the active UV to the shade UV to bake to it(*you bake to the active, from the renderable UV*).
Yours is correctly setup for the bake.
*important* it will bake to the image assigned to the mesh in the UV image editor...so with your faces selected, go to the UV image editor and select the image you want to bake to(shadows)from the drop down menu.
In the render buttons go to the bake tab, then select shadow.
click bake.....it should be rendering to the image in the editor...

Now...
in the material editor under the texture tab select the shadow map texture.
go to the map input and select uv...type the UV name in the empty field(shade in this case).
go to the "map to" tab and select multiply(you have done this already), and adjust the Col(coloring)value until you are happy.
one last thing
in the top menu(file, add, time line, game)in the game menu select Blender GLSL materials...this was not checked and may be the big issue you are having.
...I hope I covered it all as I typed and alt tabbed back and forth checking stuff.
If this is not helpfull I will still do a video...it is no problem.

Most probably it was this activating the GLSL materials, because now the textures are blended within the 3d view!

Thanks a lot!

For now the shadow parts of the cube are pitch black, and AO doesn't make much sense with a simple cube, so I have to make further tests with more appropriate shapes!

bake with an empty material(white) and ao on. Do a full bake and you will have ao and shadows in one pass. Assign the texture in another material after the color.
BTW: I am uploading a quick and dirty tut now to you tube.

i am looking forward to real global illumination in blender. it will be nice for baking. i think there already are builds on graphicall.org but they are very experimental.

Yes, there is the second build up with Farsthary's FG(I've toyed with them and they are functional)...as you can tell from your thread there are quite a few Blender heads here....growing daily.

That was fast! Enjoyed it! Gave me even additional hints how to use blender for such tasks! Great job!
