Re: Normal map baking in mudbox - help required
Alright so adding more topology in places that require more detail makes a lot of sense. I did try baking a normal back when i was working on a rock sculpt, but the xnormal bakes always came out with a lot of edges whereas the one i made in 3dsmax was by far the most smooth. Probably just a mistake i made somewhere, i'll… -

Re: Max6 Radiosity + vertex baking + indoors
OK, sorry about that. I'm still in max5 here, but I've baked an indoor closed scene. I used the Adv Material Override to make an opaque window material emit light for the radiosity solution. Also I turned on Auto Exposure Control, increasing the Exposure Value spinner after the solution, to tweak the intensity. I ended up… -
Re: Ugly Normal and AO Bakes
Could you post this stuff in your scene so we can see it with the high, low, and cage? General stuff to look out for and hopefully fix the issue. Make sure your cage, envelop in Maya, is encompassing your entire high and low poly models. Use an exploded bake setup. When you bake with intersecting meshes it will pick up… -
Need opinions on round edge normal baking workflow
Hi all, I have been following quite tiring workflow to get a nice round edge look on low poll meshes for game assets but not sure if this can be improved or if I'm doing some unnecessary work. Well, to get a seamless baking, I separate all hard edges on lowpoly model on Maya and then bake high poly model into lowpoly in… -
High to low baking issues in substance painter.
Hello, I am having some trouble with a model I created. I cannot work out why I am getting errors around one of the handels after baking in substance painter.

Re: I need help/ Baking with Substance painter
I have spend several months researching how to 100% accurately bake any low poly[hard edged and smooth groups applied] normal from high poly. There are several[thousand] factors with some being specific to the type of model and others are specific to what YOU want the end result to be. I developed a rather unhealthy… -
Re: Severe problem when baking in 3ds Max
Based off the normal you've provided I think I know the problem... you're baking a character no? I'm guessing you're baking it in one go but it doesn't work that way when you have geometry lined up next to each other. What you have to do is separate the arms / leg high polys etc and bake each piece individually. Here's the… -
low poly vert normals impact on normal map baking with cage in XNormal
I've been searching for a few days to the answer and still cannot find it. Would be great if someone clarifies it to me. According to all logical sources and how I understand cage baking - the cage is there to: * limit ray distance * determine projection ray direction Assuming cage is the same topology - rays are projected… -

Hi, I know this has been asked a million times but after going over several threads in this and other forums am unabIe to figure it out. I am making a real-time HK416 weapon to be used in a FPS game.
