Why my High Poly model doesn't want to bake onto Low Poly one?
polycounter lvl 2
I'm still a beginner in modelling and I cannot understand why my HP doesn't want to bake onto LP. I've done a model of a Medical Trolley and it didn't want to bake at all so I decided to try to bake a wheel of that trolley alone to check if it changes anything. Nope. It didn't. LP is fully unwrapped, has frozen transformation and I deleted history. HP and LP are aligned in the centre (I'm using maya). I changes the cage in substance multiple times and still nothing. I don't know what's the problem. I'm super confused what's the issue.

Are your UVs layed out in the 0-1 square? If they're outside of that, the baker will ignore them.
Also, turn the sides of the lowpoly wheel into quads and/or triangles. Baking with ngons is asking for trouble.
