 **Note:** High Poly import happens once only, even if subsequent bakes are performed using the same High Poly data. Knald will only reprocess the meshes if the source data is modified (either by loading a new high poly mesh or by editing the existing meshes externally). **Note:** High Poly import happens once only, even if subsequent bakes are performed using the same High Poly data.
