Alrighty! More normal maps for the masses.

This dl includes the props_crates, props_doors, props_interiors, props_vehicles and props_exteriors folders. The most obvious changes are the tank and landing craft and the cafe exteriors in dod_anzio. As requested by Jed and others the tank features zimmerite.

Beware, this is a big download, 28mb for all of it. Just stick the assorted props_ folders in your materials/models folder.

Beware! Can impact performance having this many normal maps!

very nice but how much of an impact does it have on FPS?

I run all this, all weapons, sleeves and hands, player models and I get about 4-5 fps hit. Your milage may vary though, my comp has a track record of doing much much better than it's supposed to.

well i have a x850xt and stuff so i get a pretty nice framerate and i just dont want to get down to like 20 fps because of everything being normal mapped :)... i dunno i might give it a try

I have a 9550 radeon, that had better do better than mine! :)

I'm going to keep installing these untill my PC melts! I love the normal maps, keep em comin!

Wow that tiger looks sweet!! Thanks a lot :D :D

Could you release normal maps for default weapons?, that BAr looks nice....

Looking at that third pic, the arch, the normal map seems back-to-front. The grout between the bricks seems to pop out, rather than in.

Joined a server today and noticed this message spaming in my console:


Material models/props_doors/doorframe_02a is being applied to a model, you need $model=1 in the .vmt file!


Dont know if this is normal or not, just a heads up :D

I know, but nothing I've tried has made any difference. nVidia's tool just got it in it's head that grout was supposed to be out and stuck with it.

I haven't noticed any of that in my games, but if it needs a "$model=1" then by god add it! :)

Tried inverting the greyscale texture before you make it a normal map? :rolleyes:

Yes, I did. It still stuck the damn :donrluvs::donrluvs::donrluvs::donrluvs: out. That is, in fact, what's up there.

Where did you get the objective flags from? I'm looking for a set like that but couldn't find them here..

(sorry for going off-topic but I'd love to get that set of objective flags)

Sorry for the derail, but where did you pick up the normal weapon maps?:hamster:

I make all my own maps.

Honestly, I can't remember. But it was from these forums so they're around here somewhere
