Can you use bumpmap textures like 512?

By that I mean, can you use them instead of 512 textures?

Rather first buy 512 and afterwards bumpmap. Bumpmap can only make your current texture look a big better and more 3d, but if the texture behind the bumpmap is 128 it doesn't look very special either.

Next to that, I'm moving this to rapid threads, mor suited in there.

By "a big better" do you mean way better or was that a typo and you ment to say a bit?
Because I really would like too now, if they affect your textures that much.

Depends on your original head texture and the quality of your bumpmap texture. Here is an example picture of the differences a bumpmap can make.


It can make your set look alot better I guess.

how to make the bump map texture of our head or body parts ?

i would like to also see an ingame picture of a bumpmap
texture,i am wondering if they work in the latest updates.

edit: did the test myself,they are working:


followed this guide to make the bumpmap:

This is a picture of someone with hampa's head bumpmapped:

You can compare it with hampa's head ingame with dl/lp.

Here is one with a different head:

And as last, this guy has full bumpmaps, only his head has a normal texture behind it though, can't show a picture of the head without it but it looks good.

There isn't much more needed than google for these questions.

on another note,just checked the bumpmap in the custom directory,
it has been downsized to 128x128,so i guess no 512 bumpmaps

Map maps are great, but there's almost no one left who makes them.

Unless you know someone or if you know how to make them, I wouldn't bother.

Ok, the original question was answered, closing. Further questions should be posed outside of this thread.
