   I am quite new and have a question with xnormal and cryteks top tips for baking textures in it.

   In xNormal. The cages allow you to specify a per-face ray distance visually. The constant uniform ray distances are not visual and, as their name indicates, it's "constant" so the same ray distance will be applied to the whole mesh.

   Hmmmm... strange.... Please, try this: 1. Uninstall xNormal. 2. Delete all the files from Documents\xNormal ( specially the XML and .dat ). 3. Remove the HKCU\Software\Santiago Orgaz\xNormal entry from the registry and see if that helps. 4. Re-install xNormal. Ok, I'll take a look :poly136: A cage is a way to control the…
