Re: Dota 2 Monthly Community 'Noob' Challenge - February 2014
I don't know if this will help but these are my normal maps that I baked from xNormal. It looks a little weird to me. Left is tangent and right is Object. -
Re: [WIP] Ruins of the Wolf King
a support arch, these are just screen-shots from the xNormal previewer, by the way, there's no diffuse texture on them yet, just looking at how the normals baked down -

Combining multiple AO maps in Photoshop
