Is it possible to make xnalara support the orange/yellow normal maps. The reason for this is because its sometimes hard to convert them with Gimp. (I'm a big gimp fan.) And when I download some models I see the normal map is the same colour as the Star Craft 2 normals. The normals I extract with TexMod Are orange but the have an alpha channel in bmp format where the ones without an alpha are a lot darker and in DDS format
Can anyone help
Thanks

Re: Orange Normal maps in XPS/XNALara
Not in original XNALara, since last version of open source XNALara isn't 100% source code complete. Best bet would be to ask the XPS author on his forums.

For example the DXT5_nm format usually expects the X axis to be in the alpha channel, the Y axis to be in the green channel, and the red and blue channels to be empty.Skaro Em wrote:Is it possible to make xnalara support the orange/yellow normal maps.
