Issues with baking - strange artifacts and lines

[Lyubaka]

I've been experiencing issues with my bakes and couldn't find any resolution. I've tried out with this head I modeled (not sure if the retopology is worth anything) but after I did the bake I got the results below. I tried with both Painter and Marmoset. 

Why do I get these artifacts? I also tried with other parts of the character and got a lot of distortion... Can anyone help{

Hi,

Have you exported your mesh with smooth normals? 

Could you share your baking parameters? 

Thank you,

Kind Regards,

Hi Geoffroy,

Now I exported with smooth normals and got a cleaner result, thank you! Still, when I bake the normal map, I get pixelated results even though I've enabled antialiasing 8x8. Check out the settings and result below:

It looks more like polygons to me. Is your high poly with smooth normals as well?

Indeed, I missed to smooth the normals on the high poly. Thank you so much for the quick answer! Have a good day/night! 🙂
