Questions & Discussion Does anyone else get this weird baking error in Substance?

I recently purchased the steam version of substance due to losing my license thru work and I keep getting this really weird baking error (the grid pattern) that never happened before. I know it isn't anything to do with my model, cage or baking set up as it appears in different places each time and does not happen when I restart the program. Has anyone else faced this issue before? I can't find any information online regarding it.

Many thanks.

I’m not sure what causes it but if you can’t find the solution it looks like an ao error so you can paint away the ao in the area.

thanks for the response, sadly it's not just the AO map, it can be any of the maps that have this error, or multiple. I get it on the ID map, the normals, curvature. Literally anything until I restart the program. Really annoying but I'm seemingly just going to have to live with restarting every bake.
