Normal Map To Displacement Map

jamilahmmed

I have a model that i downloaded from internet which comes with normal map. I want to take it in Zbrush. Because in some area the details aren't correct. As Zbrush doesn't support normal map, How do i Convert the normal map to Displacement?. There are some old threads about it. But software mentioned in those aren't giving good result for me.

It's basically impossible to do a good job of it since there's no height information in a normal map. 

try substance designer / alchemist - they work ok on normal maps that have a pretty constant height but then again, so do most of the other tools out there.

Contact the original artist and ask for the source model.
