I actually totally forgot there is an easier way for me to do all of this. I can use Substance B2M and just insert my image, it will take the normal details and everything else from it, then I can take it into Quixel and add my textures.

For example, i have some road tiles (attached) and im going to make a tile that is just grass, but I was wondering what I should do if i wanted to…
