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: setting up UV's for high poly baking

Any drawbacks to baking at 16 bit channel/format?
Hey guys, when baking normal maps in marmoset I usually select the 16 bit format option(32 bit causes my old laptop to close Marmoset lol) as when I select 8 bit I notice some dithering after the bake.
