Re: CrazyBump beta
[ QUOTE ] This is verry nice, you just need to make a good height map before you get it in CrazyBump(like making the hair on a face white instead of black). Directly importing the color map leads to some height errors. Anyway it is really great, will save me a lot of time, thx a lot Ryan! [/ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Hi… -

On a side note I'm noticing that its taking my control maps and increase the levels to be of a higher contrast that what the original image is... -
Re: CrazyBump beta
I just saw this link in a thread on the DirectXDev mailing list. http://www.sjbrown.co.uk/?code=squish It's a DXT compressor/decompressor under the MIT license. Probably doesn't support uncompressed DDS formats, but he does list a couple other open-src alternatives. -
Re: CrazyBump beta
just a few ideas: how 'bout a normal map compositing tool that lets you blend two or three normal maps together without losing detail in a normal map like you will with photoshop blend modes. having mask features and stuff would rule too. -
Re: CrazyBump beta
Oh the one thing that I did find odd was the 'time limit' on the app... I can understand not wanting to have people using old versions and possibly giving out dated/moded feedback but for the sake of market penetration (so to speak) it might be better to remove that limitation so the app *stays* in peoples hands longer… -
Re: CrazyBump beta
Hi diZzyWalnut, I think what you want is to recolor the guy's beard and hair, to make them white. Inverting the whole map would mess up his nose and lips, which look correct already. Your best bet is to whiten his hair in a paint program, and then take him back into CrazyBump. "Flip normals" is really a config setting for… -
Re: CrazyBump beta
With 3D shape at 100, the breadth slider hides because it has no effect: Normals are determined 100% by the 3D shape. We could run a broad curves filter on the 3D shape at that point. I'm not sure how useful the result would be. I must run an experiment and find out! I know what you mean about lopsidedness. I'm working on… -
Re: CrazyBump beta
I would also like to second Rorshach's request for a normal map combiner tool. The main problem with using Photoshop for the task is that it treats your normal map as color instead of as normal vectors. In order for normal maps to be combined correctly, the normals need to be combined as vectors. It needs to be done like… -
Re: CrazyBump beta
Hey Ryan, Just wanted to thank you for Crazy Bump, all of Epic is slowly converting to it, and those that are slower have simply not been shown it yet. It really is a VAST improvement over the alternatives out there and can provide a huge speed boost to a process that is overly long and time consuming. If theres one…
