Thanks, CocaCola! Glad you like it


Here's one more link for you guys, hope you like it!
This is about the effect when enemies are spawned due to the player triggering a trap.
The game automatically finds an empty tile/space for the enemy, regardless of how horrible the room you've designed looks and is made for that.

I've changed light's positions and color, now I get a different result:

@painkiller,

normal maps on that white panel walls look inverted, could look better if you flipped them.

yeah, actually not inverted but that normal map gives a weird result. I've generated a new normal map from the diffuse texture and I think it looks better now:

used CrazyBump to generate a better normal map:

It does seem a little bit better. Is CrazyBump worth it? I am currently using the nvidia normal map plugin.

I created it using the demo, as I've just installed it. I've taken a look at the pricing and an indie license costs 99$. I'm not sure if it's worth it. The good thing is that it has different settings to get the result you want:



I'll take a look over the internet to see if I can find a good plugin for Gimp. Currently I have one based on the nvidia plugin for photoshop but it doesn't allow to customize as good as crazybump.

Edit: after taking a look I think there's just one plugin available for gimp, but I've seen some videos in which they later modify the result using different filters, maybe that's the way to go

I searched a bit and found ShaderMap (http://shadermap.com/home/), it looks similar but half the price. Trying the demo now.

-edit if you are using GIMP (I personally dont), than InsaneBUMP seems to be a good free alternative.

discovered a new fancy decal side-effect lol (may have something to do with my shade-c settings or decal material, not sure):

Well, if you work with mixed material and you only have "regular" textures, generating Normal Maps is the last resort, as it always produce just a sophisticated guess.

I liked PixPlant: https://www.pixplant.com/ ... because it generates you from arbitrary images good repeated textures *and* creates normal maps and so on for you... so it's more for the repeated texture part. That is why I always liked that program.
