Learn how to bake high‑poly details onto a low‑poly model using a clean, game‑ready workflow. In this tutorial, I walk through mesh prep, cage setup, normal map baking, and texture cleanup to help you get artifact‑free results in your 3D models.
This video was inspired by techniques from @RocketLasso / Chris Schmidt, whose breakdowns have shaped a lot of my own workflow. You can check out the RocketLasso tutorial that influenced this video here:
