Normal map won´t work...

malee

Hi! I have baked out my normal map in Xnormal and I have had a lot of trubble with them... They do not work correctly in 3d Studio max with the Xoliul shader. But the same normal map work great in mudbox. What am I doing wrong in 3d Studio max? I have tried to flip the green but it doesn´t help...

uncheck flip green in the shader

I have already tried to do that. It won´t help...

Try install the real time shader from 3-point, just to see if its the shader or 3ds max that is messing with you.

How's it look in engine? Never had a whole lot of luck getting normal mapped models to display properly in Max or Blender, but never really had much need to.

Possible cause:

I see you are using 2013, there were some problems with max, so make sure to download and install the latest version of xoliul wich fixes that.

if it's still the same, like in my case it doesn't want to load the 2013.fx file for some reason, open up a DirectX material, and manually load that fx file.

He sent me the model and the normal map and it works perfectly in Max 2010 both with Xoliul and 3Point.

The screenshot in the first post shows ONE side flipped.
