Hey guys, what is the best way to bake normals in your opinion?
I usually use maya, but they often turn out very messy and I just end up having to do trial and error until I get something decent.
[Pic related, its me when normals look like shit.]

I always separate the object into non-intersecting pieces where possible and bake them in groups with xNormal.
