BAR 1918 baking problems.

Ok, I'm trying the bake right now as I'm not seeing any obvious issues with the mesh. Can you also upload the normal map result that you're getting? 

Actually I found part of the problem - the edges are much too sharp. The bevels are so small that the pixels of the normal map can barely pick them up. In order for them to bake well, you'll need to soften everything by spacing out the loops near the edges. 

ccyberdemon1542 Yeah initially the subdiv method starts out feeling more natural, but it definitely causes some baking headaches. The bevel modifier does cause a bit of warping (though the high poly should be marked sharp as well), and it's actually an issue that was recently addressed in the last GSOC sprint. If you download the latest build (2.8) you'll see extra options in the bevel modifier that will fix just about any shading issues. But then you'd have to render in 2.8 or apply the modifier, so whether or not it's worth it is up to you. 

If you want to upload a .blend with that piece, I can demonstrate what I mean. 

 I don't even remember how because the problem was just turning me into a zombie.

Ha! Sounds very familiar. Definitely give it a little break before re-evaluating the model, or your brain might play tricks on you. Glad it worked out in the end :) 

ccyberdemon1542 Looks really good! My only suggestions are updating the stock texture to be more solid and less like it would rub off in my hands, softening its edge as well to make it a bit more comfortable against the shoulder, and add a few scratches around the movable parts that show which direction they move in.
