How can I fix the UDK normal seam?

PacoCasares

Hello guys!
At the moment I am learning how to use UDK and 3dsmax. I usually work with Maya and Unity and I want to make an Portfolio Environment using different tools.

I done a simple cube to work out an efficient work flow, but I have some frustrating UV normal seams that only happens in UDK. Would anyone know why? I have done the blue blur around the edges to eliminate the possibility. Maybe I am doing something that I am not fully aware? Is there a check box or something I have done with the low poly normals? I did a test on Unity to see if I have done a simple mistake but it looks more than alright.

Shots so you can see what I mean.

I baked the normals with Xnormal, should I re-do the baking with other directions? I have little experience with that stuff.

What texture settings are you using for your normal map?

I looked what properties does the UDK pre-installed assets have. And I solved it! So happy.

The SRGB has to be switched off, Unpack Min -1 and Compression Settings TC_Normal.

So happy! Going to make some playing around. Thanks heaps

You will probably get better results with TC_NormalmapUncompressed, which I believe is recommended by Epic.

As the thumbnail, its the option I am using

Also, I want to start showing the progress on this UDK environment I am working on by uploading some sketches and ideas on where I wan to take this. Where do you recommend that I post this? In what section?
