[elio]

i found a plugin for gimp for creating normal maps

it's pretty easy to generate normal maps of the tiles

hey that's cool, does that mean these normals can be used for things like bump mapping?

[elio]

yes
as gerard is already working on the terrain drawing code, he (hopefully) will take a look at bumpmapping, afaik not even opengl 2.0 is required

Much love to you guys working on WZ2100 xD
