September 2, 200718 yr Hi.I would like to add/edit bump maps for aircrafts in FS X. So far, I has opened a image from the c172 folder in DXT. I have exported the alphachannel to Photoshop, and correct me if I am wrong, but I guess that the alphachannel is the bump map. Does anyone have a tutorial or knowledge of a thread on thr subject?KindlyJakob Arnholtz
September 2, 200718 yr May I suggest after making PSD edits simply use Bevel and Emboss to get the required effect.http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/177529.jpg
September 2, 200718 yr Theres also a handy plug in for Photoshop that allows you to view and create the bump mapping from within Photoshop.http://developer.nvidia.com/object/photosh...ds_plugins.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
September 2, 200718 yr Author It didnot cross my mind. So simple and yet so effective. Thank you so much. Could be great to collect all kinds of tips and tricks in editing bump maps for flightsim X. Bert Monroy has a couple of ideas in his book: Commercial PhotoshopKindlyJakob Arnholtz
