Quote - BB, my question would be what app did you use to create the normal map? Zbrush, Nvidia, nDo, xNormal??

I have found that there is a big difference in the final result. And no, normals do not change the profile.

Poser. Did you not read how I used the N node and some math?

I exported the actual normals by rendering the N node.

Specifically, I rendered

.5 * N + .5


Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
