| Mar 28, 2021 at 13:24 | comment | added | Georgia | I got it to work! Thanks so much for taking the time to help. I've been trying to figure out what I''ve been doing wrong for weeks! | |
| Mar 28, 2021 at 13:16 | comment | added | moonboots | Could you please share your file as it is just before the Bake step? | |
| Mar 28, 2021 at 13:03 | comment | added | Georgia | Sorry, I wasn't sure how to add images. | |

| Mar 28, 2021 at 12:56 | comment | added | Georgia | Im getting somewhere but this is still what I'm getting - I'll add a screen capture as a answer. I'm sorry! | |
| Mar 28, 2021 at 12:45 | comment | added | moonboots | put the 2 pumpkins at the exact same position, unwrap the low-poly, give it a material with an Image Texture (not plugged for the moment), create the image, choose Bake Type > Normal, Selected to Active, Extrusion > 0.2. Then bake. Then plug the Image Texture into a Normal Map node that you plug into the Normal socket of the Principled BSDF or of the Diffuse | |
| Mar 28, 2021 at 12:40 | comment | added | Georgia | I'm glad to see it's working but even with that change I'm still getting the same results :( Can you show me exactly what you did? I must be getting a step wrong. I have selected to active on in the baking tab, do you change and other settings? Ive put what my screen looks like in the answers. | |

| Mar 28, 2021 at 12:11 | comment | added | Georgia | It's all deleted an it's still 79.6mb. Would I be able to share a google drive link? | |
| Mar 28, 2021 at 11:58 | comment | added | Georgia | Yeah I've deleted everything that isn't the two meshes and the file is still too big. | |
| Mar 28, 2021 at 11:48 | comment | added | Georgia | @moonboots This is probably a really stupid question but it's saying the files too big - I compressed it but then it's not letting me upload as it isn't a .blend file. | |
