Fix mudbox seams

JakeZetter

I am trying to bake out normal maps from mudbox but along the uv seams there are obvious seams, but only while in maya. How do I fix this?

Need more info.

Baked where?
Displayed where? What is the target?
Screenshots?
etc etc?

sounds like you are baking maps in mudbox, if so then don't.
it has lots of problems with normal maps display and baking.
stick with xnormal, maya or max.

Well I took a low poly into mudbox and subdivided it into a highpoly mesh and than using the export maps created a normal that I sent into maya. When I render it gets the seams. They seam to be inverted on spots. Here is the latest example

What MM said, don't bake in mudbox, it doesn't do normal maps correctly. For height maps its amazing, but normal maps are not done correctly.

It looks like you need to invert the green channel.

But I would agree, you shouldn't bake in Mudbox, try Xnormal or pretty much anything else.

Thanks for the help guys. I figured out the green channel on my own this morning but I definitely like xnormal more than mudbox for this.
