I am playing around procedural rust material in Blender and want to apply the material to my sword model so it looks rusty and old to further export it as glb or gltf this is my node setup

The required result that I am looking for

The resulted gltf export

I have tried baking the material into a texture file and then exporting still same result.

Procedural textures can not be transferred over, you would have to bake them, Does this answer your question? How do I bake a texture using Cycles bake – brockmann Mar 02 '21 at 12:49
@brockmann I did try baking the texture but still same results Idk where I am going wrong – Mihir Mainkar Mar 02 '21 at 14:39
Hard to guess, pretty well explained over there. My bake: https://i.stack.imgur.com/9RX8U.png based on the first 3 steps of the linked answer (even if the UV's are not that nice, it bakes perfectly). – brockmann Mar 02 '21 at 15:43
After you've baked you have to change the material to a form the glTF exporter understands that actually uses the baked texture. – scurest Mar 02 '21 at 17:26
Here's a YouTube video that demonstrates baking complex nodes into a texturemap, and then exporting that texturemap to glTF. – emackey Mar 03 '21 at 18:55
