HEy,



I'm very new to modeling. How do I go about making my normal maps and all of that? I'm using blender and have photoshop if that helps. Thanks!

I spend the last day for finding out how I can put away that reflections and shine from the textures for the terrain.
It's hard with Gimp, 99% fails, or I'm too stupid.
I tried Mapzone, and the first experiment is great.
