I'm trying to follow a tutorial where the instructor has a mask on a head he loads for the distrubution map in 3ds max.  How can I create a mask like this?  I'm new and cannot figure if he painted a mask using vertext paint...but I cannot figure out how to bake that vertex paint to a texture to load in the dist map.  Can someone point me in the direction on how to create a mask like this to use for Ornatrix?  Thank you.

I figured out a way to do this...in case someone is wondering, using substance painter, fill layer all black, add black mask  and paint filter, paint white, right click layer  and export mask to bitmap...load in max for dist map
