Exporting High-Quality Nomal Maps in Zbrush (Tutorial)













Since the release of Zbrush 3, many people were complaining about Zmapper not being integrated into ZB3 and also the fact that normal map functions are not working at all.

There were found the ways to create normal maps in ZB3, one of them was to create a displacement map, crop and fill the document and then to apply a normal rgb material from zbrush 3, it is a way, but the mormal maps end up being a very low-quality and with a seams problem.

So I have found another way to produce and extremely Hight-Quality Normal Maps without waiting for a new Zmapper and the quality of the maps is soo good that personally I dont need a Zmapper at all.

Hi there,

While I love Xnormal (mmm... tasty AO maps!), I'm curious if there is any inherent benefit from using it for this purpose over nVidia's Normal Map Photoshop Filter?

It seems that since you're mainly looking for gray-scale height map to normal map conversion, and already mention the use of Photoshop in the process, the filter may be a more efficient pipeline route.

Just curious if there's more to the story (so to speak).

Beyond that, many thanks for the Z-Brush tips!

Stanislav Morozov said...

oh well, it is the same process, but Nvidia's filter is more suited for the lower-rez files (for games), while Xnormal handles very large files and it also comes with photoshop plugin :)

HI, I have a problem with the quality of the displace map, it seems like rendered at 256x256, and then scaled to the size I have selected, 2000x2000. How I could make the image with full resolution. Thanks!
