Normal Baking problem
In substance painter I am having an issue baking my normal/AO etc maps. Here is my model and UVs. I duplicated a lot of parts after unwrapping them, but that has never caused an issue with previous models. And here is my Highpoly: And this is the result after baking. I have tried multiple ways of exporting the model. All… -
Normal Mapped Creatures
Lookin' for some crits on these 2 monsters I worked on in Modo + Zbrush (w/ zmapper to generate the normal maps.) Neither of them have a texture because I'm terrible at painting them! Maybe I'll give it a go on one of these guys when I feel up to it. Both are based off designs from the HL mod natural selection. Skulk ~… -
Afterburn -> normal map?
Anybody ever tried to create a tangent-space normal map for clouds? I'm wondering if Afterburn (volume particle plugin for Max) could be lit properly by directional lights, so it could be rendered into a normalmap? I don't have it here to test. I was thinking of using this old trick for lighting the scene, so the front… -
Re: Normal Map Camera
hmm....Im curious about their target audience. most people that want to create normal maps have a computer and most likely a bunch of programs on it that does a better job then any app out there can ever create. and the people that dont, why would they need a normal map in the first place? -

Assembling baked normal maps?
Hi, This may be a very basic question... Since it is a lot easier to break down normal map baking into separate pieces, and assemble them later - is there an easy way of taking lots of TGA files with alpha and assembling them into one file? Kaldera has a bitmap composer which does this, but I wondered if there's another… -
Normal Maps made in Mudbox
I seem to be having some trouble with the bump maps I get from Mudbox. Whenever I put them into 3ds max (version 6) it always shows just a few striations in the mesh, but no actual features from the high-poly model. Any help is appreciated. EDIT: I have the normal maps working now, but there are a lot of dark spots or dark… -
Re: [WIP] Normal Map Learning Thread
So for hard surfaces like this, you think it is easier and normally the same result to not sculpt out fine detail for a normal map? -
Another normal map problem
Hey, I have a nasty normal map problem. I tried everything I know and I failed... Maybe you can help? Everything is on one SG. As you can see I have a pretty bad seam. There is UV seam but on model it pop up only in that curvy part. I checked binormals and they are fkd up in that place but I have no idea how to fix it.
