Maya Transfer maps normal baking problem, PLZ HELP!

aaronaton

Hello people i have suddenly came into an issue with transfer maps that i haven't seen before:



Here you can see my lowpoly sitting on top of my high poly pretty standard really. I mainly modelled half of my lowpoly then UV'd it, then mirrored it across as most of the model is symmetrical.



here is my UV's, mirrored and moved across out of the + UV space.



Here is my bake from transfer maps (reset settings in transfer maps)

Wierdly is has kinda baked as you can see large details that have transfered...but its horrid it has like this bump map scattered everywhere which resembles of photo of my UV maps just multiplied hundreds of times!!

Please help me to find out what i can change :thumbup:

Try assigning a new material to the high poly and give that a go - I think (not too sure) that if you have a diffuse assigned to the material, and bake from that - it will also include the diffuse bake that in to it

You can try deleting your history and then freeze transformations/reset transformations on both models.

Thanks for your input, i will begin by assigning new mats to both models and deleting history etc, and get back to you guys.

It looks like the bake might be assigned to the wrong UV channel or something like that?

What does the actual normal map look like?

Edit: Hmmm but I can see the normal map bake from the high sort of underneath the mess here so that is weird, its almost like there is another tiling normal map on top of it or something like that.
