I'm in the middle of learning dDO and I'm stuck of color map baking from a high poly model to low poly.

I understand that I select the high poly, put it in source, and then low poly, to target. But everytime, I get this

The model is this

I've been trying and trying for a week and simply giving up and need help. This is the first time I created an account to get help.

I even modeled a simple high/low poly box and I get the same results. What am I doing wrong?

Well first red flag is your UV map. That is bad. You need to research how to cut UV's properly and flatten them. Here is a tutorial that goes over the process of UVing so you can get a clean map.

This is a video going over the entire process of DDO that I recorded a while back.
