1. Bake channel packing is still on to do list (EDIT: It's already implemented in 1.2) 2. Ucupaint is already support UDIM, if your any of your UV islands is located than the usual 0..1 range, it will automatically use UDIM when you create new layer/mask

I absolutely love this addon and I can't imagine using blender without it. I cannot thank you enough for putting this out here for everyone to use. I do have one question though. On one of my models I already have a baked normal map from a high poly mesh, but Id like to hand paint some normal details (The coolest feature ever btw) but when I check the normal tick box, my baked normal map changes and doesn't look good anymore. Is there any way to have the normal bake texture and use the hand painted normal feature as well? I assume I could fix this in the shader editor but Im not very knowledgeable with shaders. Thank you again for this addon!

For exporting textures into something like Unity (using URP or HDRP) is there any-way to invert textures and also channel pack images? For example on Unity URP, the Roughness would be inverted (Unity calls it "Smoothness") and it should be packed as the Alpha of the Metallic texture. Is this possible?

Sorry for the late reply. Currently bake result channel packing is not available on ucupaint and I already write it as an issue in github. Please use different addon that can do that in the meanwhile.

Baking is still the same, custom bake target is just an addition if you want to create images that contain various channels inside its RGB channels. There are some template that you can already use like ORM, which GLTF format uses. Those textures will be baked automatically alongside the usual 'bake all channels' operator.

Does the way the paint is layed out on the baked texture match your UV unwrap. If using texture for older game engine, where a single texture is needed, can it all.be exported to a single texture from the addon settings?

I think it probably depends on your exporters, ucupaint will use whatever uv you input when you bake the channels.
