This is so useful and needed! I love you, make more videos!
I will! Thanks for the encouragement.
bump map are replaced by normals map for fine details years ago, it's mean normals map are superior and also you don't need bump map when you already have normals map.
Yes you can combine bump map and normals map, but in the end we only need normals map
Yes, that is true and you raise a very valid point. I do prefer using normal maps. However, one trick I like to use (as you have hinted);
1. Use normal maps for the custom height information.
2. Use bump for the smaller, tiling detail.
Win-win! Thanks for your thoughts.
@@JamesMiddletonDesign yes you are right, bump map can easily working with for fine details using brush or procedural texture without the need to bake normals from sculpted high poly model which is very heavy.
And as far as I know, bump map still have to be converted into normals map for readable in render engine.
So if you have bump map and normals map, you need to combine them into 1 normals map, remove the need of calculating from bump map, therefore reduce graphics computing load and gain more performance, especially in Game engine.
@@kaizu4914 That's interesting. Thanks for your thoughts on this. It makes sense. After all, you can combine many normal maps. I forgot to mention in the previous comment that I am the video's author...just using a different account. I'm going to dig deep into this. It's always good to refresh the way we do things from time to time.
@@kaizu4914 I will still say that splitting the normal (or bump map) into two levels is better than one though. Good for close-ups.
@@JamesMiddletonDesign Oh you are the owner of channel, I am glad to hear that!
And I always have open mind for knowledge from your. Keep up the good work!
