[Problem] Normal Mapping With 3DSMax 7

[Chris. F.]

nobody knows what's going on ? :shrug::sad:

Solution : I don't made my NM with 3DSmax but with Z Brush I create a Displacement Map and with photoshop i convert it in NM with the lil nvidia plugin.

Could it be the smoothing groups?, Forgive me if this is an ovious answer?

[Chris. F.]

no problem :)

I always put the smoothing group well before I put the texture. But with a chars I made I really see the wire into the normal map.

well here i have a lil correction :

but an other question : Why it's still blue into the viewport of max ???
