nice photos ! ...  P-47 ... and there is the main body of another US plane, as well as a Willys jeep ..  but i think its a post-war photo, that guy has much looking soviet or czech/slovak helmet and a coat looking like one from that region. Also that brittish bomber ( or recoon plane ? - still the british mark is weathered, but visible non the less ). Seems like some hangar for research purposes to look trough the allied tech, or last resort push to get all they had in the air, including those machines.

Hi,

got the hangar finally done, but I do not like how I did the Bum-Map. Anyone who has to say what, or change it, can send me PM for templates etc.

Hi, AH-DG! Nice job!!!

looking at your normap map (T_Segment_n) I see you have you rotated sections of this (once it was baked) in photoshop.

The information in the green channel must be from up-down.
The information in the red chanel, from left-right.

Then your method of compression may flip the channels. In the compresonator is "ATI2N (Alternate XY Suizzle)", but the information any way, on each chanel, must be in one of two directions: up-down OR left-right... And at least in this normal map you have mixed information.

Here you have two different sections of the green chanel:

Hi KW71,

yes probably it was exactly as you say. But I'm already tired of this whole rotations, because I would have to place the rafters. If you want to continue, I can
give you all the templates + model and you can correct it.
Your tip (green / red ... etc) I'll remember ... thank you! ;)

Gruß,
Stefan

I appreciate it, , but right now I'm really busy with other stuff, and I need to focus on them.

A work around for this problematics sections would be, once you have identified them, swap red & green channel just in those regions.

When you originally bake your normal map (or create it from a gray-scale image in other application), commonly the green channel go up-down, and the red channel left-right (at least you specify differently in that application).

After that, I would recommend you compress it using the Compressonator: 1.- create the mipmaps, 2.- compress it as "ATI2N (Alternate XY Suizzle)" which will swap the green and red channels (now green will go right-left, and red up-down), and 3.- save the compressed version. The final file wont have alpha channel (yours have it), wich is not necessary and just increase the file size.

After all this you still could have a small issue with the green channel inverted; in that case, you can just select this channel in photoshop (in your uncompressed image) and invert it... Then you go to the Compressonator process again...

The most important thing here is to take care each channel go in one, and only in one direction.

Hope this help.   :)

So, have been revised. While it is not yet finished (white paint drops), but something like it will be. :)

Know anybody about it, why warped at this point so? In 3dr Max is displayed correctly and I have these parts again subjected UVW mapping. So it must have taken place when FBX upload.  =| :(

May be a triangulation problem. When you export to .fbx, in the exporter gui, under geometry, do you have selected "triangulate" and "preserve edge orientation"?
