Normal maps with the TGE basic

by John · in General Discussion · 11/17/2008 (2:30 pm) · 7 replies

I'm trying to get my normal map to show in the TGE and its not showing up in either the ShowToolPro, or in my environment done with the basic tutorial by adding objects.
Are normal maps not supported on the basic TGE? Or is this operator error?
Thanks

Tge doesnt support normal maps, you either have to upgrade to tgea or implement the modernization kit

For those who don't access to the private forums though search will be their best option. Use the terms Modernization Kit and read some of the blogs about it by Alex Scarborough for some basic information about it. Another name to look for is Koushik - he's added and improved upon the MK and discusses his changes in a couple of blogs.
