Hey all

I'm new and have been trying to get this model + two materials into Unreal. I'v been using the tiling/offset tools in the coordinate section of the material editor to adjust the textures.

I run into problems when I try to bake the textures, it always flattens the textures and makes them look bad (and the bake doesn't work).

In all the tutorials I can find they always unwrap the textures, but this seems like a waste of time when I can get just the same results with the tiling tools.

Is there a way to bake textures that have been aligned using the coordinates tools?

Thanks in advance
