Case in point - I wanted to immediately try baking a simple scene. A plane with a red sphere and blue cube. I have absolutely no idea how to go about setting up the bakes at all. We need detailed, step-by-step hand holding here. Otherwise, we start to give up and just go back to our DCC of choice, do it there, then import. I am imploring you to really think about providing adequate tutorials that come out on day one. Otherwise, the initial excitement fades and we give up.

Thank you. Yes, we've perused these as soon as they were available. They are always presented in a high overview fashion, whereas us seasoned 3D professionals who should be able to just "dive in" are confronted with a totally new and not quite intuitive GUI, which then means we need to try and scour the documentation to try and figure out how to get stuff working.

Thx for the quick reply! I am using Maya to author the model and animation. My textures were created in Substance Painter, but i'm having issues editing and re-exporting USDZ from Maya. Please see my feedback on the maya-usd github: https://github.com/Autodesk/maya-usd/issues/4273 Are you able to provide guidance on the proper, compliant method for authoring USD Preview Surface and export as USDZ from Maya? I'll try asking this as a new question here, thx!

Thx for the quick response! Regarding Part 2 of my question - is there a way to change the viewers position in Reality Composer Pro, so that we are able to navigate inside an environment? Essentially, I would love to either snap-teleport, or more ideally, duplicate the behavior when using my Meta Quest 3 controllers. Commonly referred to as "Half Life: ALYX" style navigation. I figure I've got "controllers" via the PS5, they are just morphed together into one. ;)
