Game Artist Forums - View Single Post - Tutorial: Ambient Occlusion in Maya

The reason I ask is because I got some detail to my normal map with a converted bump to normal map overlay, not just a high poly. So when i bake my occlusion from that high poly it leaves out the newly created detail. Maybe just use that bump map to paint overlay occlusion in photoshop?
