hi all

I'm struggling with 'bump mapping' at the moment. My bumps seem to generate 'noise' or seem low res when my maps are quite hi res and slightly guassian blurred.

Have at look at this jpeg. How can I smooth the noise out?

Hmmm :hmm: ...It appears you are using pure white and 50 grey,so the only thing I can think of is your g blurring is creating banding which is being mapped to different shapes and then appears as noise.

I imagine your antialiasing is set on best
and your using highquality tifs(or whatever) as you bump?

whatever:shrug: good luck.
