These images should be saved in the same spot as the originals, with the same name, but with the suffix "_n", for example: "dirt_n.png". To make a pack (prior to 1.5) compatible with bump mapping, you will need to make normal map versions of the textures. That is quite an improvement! It can make Minecraft look much more realistic, and can make both the natural terrain, and your great builds, much more visually appealing.
Here is an example of the improvement the mod makes. You will see that it is quite flat, especially when viewed from an angle, and the shading in the texture itself never matches up exactly with the light in the game. Here is an example of a pack without mapping. Without the mod, it is a nice pack, but seems flat due to the very nature of Minecraft's texture wrapping. The SEUS mod comes with an example pack to properly show the possibilities with such a program. So if anyone could show me a download link for it, it would help.īump mapping can be an amazing and beautiful addition to texture packs, and it will provide dynamic shadows to give the illusion of a 3-dimensional texture. I found it before, but I can't find it now, and I don't have Facebook, so I don't know where to look. I can't find the download on his Facebook page right now. Instructions on that can be found on this thread, and the download updated to 1.7 can be found on his Facebook page, as he doesn't update via his forum thread anymore.
The SEUS (Sonic Ether's Unbelievable Shaders mod) is a well known program that is relatively easy to install. I later found out that the mapping doesn't require it's own mod.
I looked everywhere and it looked like such a complicated process to even install it. Installation is sadly one one the things that took me the longest time. This is a tutorial on bump mapping, for everyone who can use shaders and wish to push their pack that much farther.
