Am I the only one still having normal mapping issues in 4.4?

Hey, thanks, good catch on the texture compression, that usually just works, I need to check that next time I am seeing shading errors. It looks much better, but still not correct. There is faceting that should not be there:

With regards to something being wrong with the normal map, I don’t understand what you mean. Triangles everywhere, huh? This is a low poly torture test. That is how the normal map should look.

Thanks.

Each lowpoly triangle is “highlighted” in your normal map, that’s why you see weirdness, just look at previous screenshot and compare to this rebake with different parameters

Your unwrap is designed with the idea that you have multiple smoothing groups and they are assigned to different sides of cube. One side = one UV shell and one smoothing group. If you will use single smoothing group with unwrap like this… you will get weirdness. You should either re-unwrap model to have less seams and rebake with single smoothing group or re-assign multiple smoothing groups, according to your UV shells.
