Hi! I'm a first year student, so I know next to nothing I've just made a piano. I added textures. When I import into unreal it looks flat and unrealistic. I believe I need to add normal maps to the materials? The lighting just needs to look better on it. I have tried for hours to find a decent tutorial on how to unwrap my…

With the recent comments in GD about sharing. Here you all go. All source files included. If you want to comment about issues, that's cool. Its only 80% done as we are still deciding on the "look" of the game this is being made for (i.e. why all just "shiny" and no wear). So its been put aside about 10 months as I have…
