Making a Bumpmap

[Cees Donker]

I tried to make a bumpmap for a model I repainted. But somehow I can't manage to get a decent result. Obviously I'm missing something. PaintShopPro X9 is the main program I use to make textures. I used Nvidia texture tools exporter and ModelconverterX to no avail. Can someone help me?

Ulrich,
thanks for the link - pity it is only for Photoshop users . . .

Thanks Ulrich!

Rohan,

There is also a standalone program that should function the same way as the plug in functions.

I can't see it exactly in your pic , but it looks like the bump maps are not active.
Are you made sure that the bump scale is set to 1 and the bump texure name is the same like in MCX.
I will check this tonight with my other pc, on which I have installed PaintShopPro.

Cheers
Ulrich
