Why are there seams on my normal map?
If you are using cycles you probably forgot to switch your image texture node from color to non-color data. This will hide the seam significantly. Also creating a higher resolution normals map will help as well. If seen this several times. In my experience it is due to weird uv mapping. Try to unwrap your model different.
When do unknown seams appear on baking texture?
Cycles: Unknown seams appear on normal baking texture. Unknown seams appear on normal baking texture. As far as I see, it is more obvious on 8-bit image texture when baking using Tangent space. Leon Cheung (leon_cheung) created this task.

Apart from the texture issues your object also has a bunch of flipped normals: inside the nostrils, the eye sockets and inside the holes where the ears are attatched to the head.
Are there visable seams in Max in Unreal?
The visable seams are in Max, although I will check it when i take it into Unreal. I feel like it is something simple I am doing wrong. I’m going to try the “non-tangent edge UV seam” thing to see if that works. You’ll lose a bit of the detail, but try drawing a thin line of 127, 127, 255 around the UV edges.
How to make map seams in 3ds Max?
Made a simple boxy shape in 3DS Max and gave a small champher to the edges. Unwraped the object so that the seam was around the center, running along flat faces. All one smoothing group. Exported the object as an OBJ for Zbrush. Imported the OBJ in Zbrush using the “tools” box. Subdivided it a few times to ~million ploys.
