Do you have your diffuse/norm/spec. then in the same file, edit the R,G,B channels and use UDK somehow to use them on the material? I know you can plug certain channels in in UDK, but i dont know of a way to edit the R G and B channels.…
About this, when you say gamma space what do you mean exactly? I'm currently working with an indie company and combining maps as so: normal/height RGB/A (normal and parallax), rough/AO/metal = R/G/B, and Albedo as it's own map.

The holes are not black any more, and I added some overlays like you suggested. -Delerium-…

If anyone manages to snag one ahead of time and registers it (using a proxy and an anonymous email address of course), all hell breaks loose. I'm waiting for…
