Normal Mapping

Hey everyone! I've implemented the MK kit and was wondering, how do I assign normal maps to my own textures for my own materials?

there is no normal mapping in TGE only TGEA and T3D

It's been a while... but i think you just need to use your own normal maps in place of the templated materials and disable the autogeneration of the normal maps that the MK kicks out.

@Brandon: the Modernization Kit (MK) enables some shader capabilities for TGE

Yes, if you plan to use your own normal maps, then disable the automatic generation. See in mkInterior.cpp
// If this is uncommented, we generate material definitions
#define MK_AUTOGEN_MATERIALS

I already have this done but its not even generating normal maps on its own before that. Is there a script I need to put in the file? If so, can you give me an example of that script?
