Hi, I am very much a amateur at some of this stuff, including normal maps.

So I downloaded some sewer models from a website called

http://arteria3d.myshopify.com/

and they are awesome. I have them working in FPSCR no problem. But they came with some pre made normal maps and I am not sure how to add them so FPSCR can read them. It doesn't help that the models are named "sectionA", or "sectionB"... and the normal maps are numbered instead of lettered. Any one have any ideas and or suggestions? That would be super helpful. Thanks.

The normal map should have the same name as the diffuse map, but with a _N suffix instead of _D. For example, if the diffuse map is called 'building.DDS', rename it to 'building_D.DDS', and the normal ma would be 'building_N.DDS'. You'll probably need to change the texture entry in the FPE file.
