I'm trying to bake a combined image texture for curtains, but the result has random shadows in wrong places. I checked every object, everything unneccessary is disabled for rendering, normals are facing the right way, there is nothing overlapping and no unapplied modifiers. Don't know what else could be causing this. (I separated parts for baking). Ignore the unconnected image texture.

  • $\begingroup$ Maybe your unwrap is not correct and you have overlapping UV faces? Try to unwrap again, for example with the Smart UV Project option $\endgroup$

Check to see if your ortho camera has clipping too high. Also recalculate the normals on those meshes.

  • $\begingroup$ you're right I was lazy and I apologize for not reading the post. It looked like clipping, from the image you posted. There's a bake setting for distance, but I recall that was for baking to another mesh. sorry I couldn't help. wish you the best. $\endgroup$

You have overlapping UV faces, it creates a baking problem, unwrap again, for example with the Smart UV Project option.
