Baking Issue

Wolfer

Hi there so i'm having this strange issue with baking. I don't know why but when i am baking my model from low to high, in painter it has it where this one part is red and i can't figure out why. I checked all the surfaces and everything

here i'm including the blender file to help out.

its red because rays are missing

i don't usually bake with cages because they're a pain in the arse 
but
make sure the cage is encompassing the high poly and if you have any control over projection distances, try making them a bit larger

the weird thing is i wasn't using the cage, i was just using the high poly and i tried to make the project distance higher but still didn't read it. was weird.

it might be rear projection  rather than front - you can usually get away with settings that a lot higher., 

if you're using the BB as a reference for the distances try setting them both to 1.0.  you should get a load of projection artefacts but no misses and can work back from there
