does anyone no how to apply those single colored normal maps extracted from SH5 in 3dsmax or a way to convert them to normal tangent spaced normal map?

help plz?

Hey. Those normal maps are already in tangent space. They use a common technique that involves swapping the alpha and red channels, and deriving the z in a pixel shader. Here's an example of how to decode it from the fragment program I wrote for Scarlet:

PARAM mulf = {2.0, 2.0, 2.0};
PARAM subf = {-1.0, -1.0, -1.0};
#(for standard scale+bias normal expansion)
MAD nrml, nrml.wyzx, mulf, subf; #<--notice r-a swizzle
DP4_SAT nrml.z, nrml, nrml; #<--and of course, it's simple to derive z from here

thanks for the info but i no nothing about scripting. so am i suppose to plug this script in somewhere in max.

This is a Photoshop plugin that will perform the swizzling, z derivation, and re-normalization operations.

I don't know if it will work in anything earlier than CS3. I don't have anything for Max either.

cool this works. thanks

Scarlet (RichWhitehouse) is good, but problem is a thousands files, that hell extract by one file...
i dont find option in Scarlet "Extract All Files To..."

how Batch extract PAK? that possible?
