Question

Hello, I would like to share an issue I've been having. Whenever I bake my model I have been having weird artifacts with it's maps and I'm unsure as to what's causing it. I put this in discussion as I'm not sure if this is a bug or me just not understanding how the software works as I am relatively new to it. I would greatly appriciate some help.

 

Here's the ID Map for an example as to what I'm dealing with:

Hi @Lucas28129185cfy6,

 

Thanks for all the details.

 

My first guess would be an issue with the UVs. Can you share a screenshot of the 2D view? This also reminds me an issue with .FBX exported from Blender, but it's a bit soon to say whether it's this or not. I'd also love to have more details on what happens with the other maps?

 

Let me know.

Actually I did export this from Blender. Could that have something to do with it?

 

Here's some of the other maps I have, along with the ID Map:

Thank you for sharing screenshots.

 

I don't know if these UVs represent the entire mesh, but the issue very likely comes from them. 

 

UVs are the 2D representation of the 3D mesh, therefore they need to adopt a certain shape in order to correctly represent 3D parts in a 2D space.

 

 

If certain rules are not followed, issues like the one you're facing are likely to occur.

 

I advise to make sure the UVs are ready to be used in a texturing software and you can obviously share to me a screenshot of your UVs in Blender if you need anymore guidance.

 

Best regards,
