BUMP MAPPING help

Post by cg »

I have seen many posts, that say:

"I know I'm an uber noob, and I want to know how to bump map."

I myself, agree with this, when it comes to bump mapping, it isn't really a secret technique if almost every next gen game has, I never really took the time to look for a tut atm... but I figure, if anyone has one, or can point the clueless population, including me, then please help!

Im not aware that the plugin is made to work with paintshop pro. There are plenty of photoshop ones.

Basically they take the darkness, and make them a purply colour usually, and that shows that if you shine a light it will add depth accordingly. Its really easy and can be done manually if needed. It has become quite a trend in all modern games, halo was one of the first games to introduce it.
