Assembling baked normal maps?
Hi, This may be a very basic question... Since it is a lot easier to break down normal map baking into separate pieces, and assemble them later - is there an easy way of taking lots of TGA files with alpha and assembling them into one file? Kaldera has a bitmap composer which does this, but I wondered if there's another… -

Problem with normal Baking substance
Hello, after spending hours on this i decided to come here to ask for help. I have a low poly model that i wish to bake with an Higher Poly one but I get some weird artifacts on the normal map following the topology. It seems to not be linked to the high poly as I tested swapping the high poly to just a subdivided version… -
[3DC/Max] Why is it so hard to bake this wall?
Hello! I'm writing this here because I've already tried everything I could think of, but I see no straight way to do this. I'm working with 3ds Max 2017 (in which i happen to have corona on the side) and 3D Coat 4.5 and I'm trying to bake a tiling wall texture. This is the wall that I've made. I tried to bake it in 3D Coat… -
Re: YET ANOTHER Xnormal baking problem!
The cage determines ray cast distance so there shouldn't be any issues of portions of your model interfering with other areas unless your cage is clipping into itself, so adding a plane is not necessary. Personally, I would recommend making your cage inside Maya. xNormal works fine and all but in my opinion it's just… -
Re: Is this good way to make PBR textures?
Macbeth Chart is good for referencing colors and or balancing photos. Macbeth Chart "Remember Me" has a great overview of PBR a lot can be gleamed from this.

Re: Maya AO won't bake
Make sure both objects are visible when you bake. I usually put my hp and lp on seperate layers and turn off the hp for quick navigation, this works fine for every other type of bake, but AO will only register as a white or black output -
Re: Baking normal map with symmetry mesh
Thanks for comment :) I spent more time on this topic and I manage to find solution. This is simple mesh, but i think it will work in more complicated meshes. As you said, I believe that it could be problem with vertex normals. Here are my steps: 1. I have created low poly mesh, half was deleted, after that I made UV and… -
Re: Baking hard edge artifact
That is clearly a flipped trianglulation between what the baked had during the baking as the lowpoly from what you actually have in your blender viewport. This is obvious from the x shaped normal map error patterns. Make sure you triangulate the mesh on export. -
Re: Normal map baking - problem
Explode the mesh in an animation. Make a keyframe, got to frame 100 (or whatever), move the opjects pices away and create another keyframe. Then bake the normals. When you need the model to be one pice aggain (for AO) just go back to your inital keyframe and bake there.
