Talk:Texture Replacer/Tutorial
There are no discussions on this page.
Hi there.
I got Photoshop 7.0 and the other tools that are required for this tutorial. I got stuck in the section where you should use the Normal Map Filter in Adobe Photoshop. The problem is that I don't get these "color dots" in my normal map, I only get it to be blue. I also have no idea how to bring up the alpha channel. There is another tutorial, Normal Maps Basic. I don't see the connection between that tutorial and my problem.
Please help me anybody!
- I'm not sure what you mean by "color dots". Modifying a Normal Map manually seems like a poor idea; you'd be better off downloading nVidia's DDS plugin for Photoshop that can handle them. The Normal Map Basics tutorial discusses how to use that plugin.
- Accessing the alpha map, anyway, is done by going to the Channels tab (usually in the same window as Layers, just have to click Channel instead of Layer - if it's not there, go to the Window menu and make sure Channel is checked), and then clicking on the Alpha.
