Re: Normal Baking problems
Heya - Indeed, good of you to ask. The reason why I asked you why you were making such an assumption is because putting clear words on why one believes a certain thing helps identifying where such a belief is coming from.

Re: Gun engraving help
UVing the high takes only a few min, you're only doing the pieces you need and often that's a simple planar, cylinder or explode unwrap.
