Tutorial Normal Map 3dsmax

[eyvindrvit]

I have a problem. I did just as you in the vid, and it baked me a normal map just fine, an the uvw coordinates look good too. However, when i apply it in the material editor, it puts the /whole/ map on each side, and not only those parts that were assigned to it by the uvw coordinates. What should I do? Please help!

That's funny, I throught that 3ds max only support bump map and not normal map.

I can not bake this shit.

Got ma 3d model ready but not sure where to start from, I want to apply texture, normal map, opacity, specular and diffuse map, can any one please tell me what should be applied first? does normal comes first or the texturing n other maps?, I have finished unwrapping my model.

Great vid cheers. I'm very new to this, the only trouble I had was figuring out the second flat panel goes UNDERNETH the panel with the bevelled extrusions.

Also I didn't realise straight away that the normal maps I was creating were saving in a totally random location (my pics file) and not the 3dsmax/screen assets/images. But everything was still very helpful.

Following this video DOES NOT produce a normal map on 3DS Max 2010 64-bit. Just a grey and red map.

Thanks, man! A tip for Oblivion Modders:

Choose the "Tangent" bubble in the "Options" button in the "Projection" section of the Render to Texture window.

This will give you the familiar mostly-blue texture if things seem wrong w/ the other options. You will also note that in the "Options" section, the directions change from X and Y (or whatever) to the more often described "Left/Right" and "Up/Down".

also if u choose light map that will render out an ambient occlusion map that helps when texturing. i also add a skylight in my scenes to get the lighting info for the projection. and if the mesh is smoother in the edges it helps for extra details.

audio would be nice because of small text... but the viseo is great

[lepape2]

Add &fmt=18 in the link. You can read the text very easily now.
