Ok... here goes... but I don't know why I'm wasting my time posting about it, or anything else...
... The quality of the forum has degraded since the good old days 10+ years ago, when people actually helped and supported each other...
Most of those good folks are gone now...
When I ask for help, it's usually ignored now...
... and since I'm not posting clips of robots, aliens, or jiggly bosoms, all my clips are soundly ignored...
Anyhow, just in case anyone gives a damn, I just discovered a $99 tool called Crazy Bump that creates Normal maps, available for a free trial.
Since I don't use a lot of highly complex programs I find this useful.
Hello? Anybody?
