when you bake the map in zmapper bake only one of the hands. If you are having problems it sounds like you are trying to bake 2 nmaps at the same time on top of each other

if you have the UVs mapped in the same space the nmap will be applied to both

you have to map the piece at the same position but in another uv space one in 0 to 1 one in 1 to 2 etc...it will take them as poly groups and work properly.Is the same concept more or less that also max do ...in max only 0 to 1 mapped pieces are taken in account when render to texture.
in max you can do it making them overlap and then translate by multiple of 1 in u direction.
