Getting weard shading errors in the normalmap but PNG file format fixed it vs targa?
so i just baked out normal map on my hard surface model and it looks fine in substance painter :https://gyazo.com/9c1e6d71f38e8672e676ad45e8bade64 but in unreal with export set to targa format :https://gyazo.com/1ac9f12f8bc5950c7794b7b2202cd46a as you can see it has shading errors.

The green channel is flipped in UE. SP is defaulted to DX(which is what UE uses) did you bake in OpenGL? Just as a piece of unrelated advice: your corners are way too sharp and will be unreadable/mip badly in-game. It is common practice to exaggerate your baked bevels for game assets so that they get more pixels on screen… -

Interesting. I always bake in SP with DirectX and export as .tga so I've never encountered this issue. Glad it worked out in the end. :)
