Re: what is causing these yellow normal maps?
I third baking in SD/SP, but would recommend using a cage for anything more complex than a plane. -
Re: what is causing these yellow normal maps?
I would have thought inverted normals too, but OP states Maya and that the transforms are frozen and history deleted; which I believe is the same as resetting xform in Max. And I second baking in SP. :smiley: -
Re: what is causing these yellow normal maps?
I've baked some complex (ish) meshes cage less in SP. Never really a problem as I usually bake synced. Also, I've seen an Interesting technique recently of setting up a graph in SD to blend averaged/non-averaged bakes to get the best of hard edges and non-skewed details from the respective maps. -
Re: what is causing these yellow normal maps?
Sure, it's not totally necessary. Just speaking my opinion :) The way I see it is that if I can get more control for the trivial amount of effort needed to use a cage, that's a huge plus for me. I've seen the technique you mention. Honestly? I let skewing happen and I'm happy with the results. I don't waste time with…
