Awesome Bump 3.0
-
GitHub - kmkolasinski/AwesomeBump: AwesomeBump is a free program written using Qt library designed to generate normal, height, specular or ambient occlusion textures from a single image. Since the image processing is done in 99% on GPU the program runs very fast and all the parameters can be changed in real time. AB was made to be a new alternative to known gimp plugin called Insane Bump.

Used the original and found it decent although UI was difficult. Will try this one for sure. Thanks again Pilou, keep them coming!
-
Thanks. Will try this.
-
it looks better than xnormal, i will try it , thank you pilou
-
Fantastic, music to my ears, will try laters
-
Looks nice enough as an idea but all that source code and building a program? No thanks. I may be considered lazy programming wise but that, is why I run windoze rather than Linux as an OS. I just want to use the programs, simples.
-
Unzip this and in the folder will be the .exe to launch the app. No compiling is needed.
-
Thanks Rich, I must have missed that somewhere.

Looks like CrazyBump for free... Very nice, very nice...

No idea why this is so popular, it does nothing so far and has zero instructions that I can find. I know it is a generous thing to provide a program gratis but without decent documentation it is basically useless.

I don't understand your comment "it does nothing so far": seems like it can do more than even a skilled person could exhaust.
But I totally agree that it is mostly unusable without a large amount of documentation and tutorials. It is clearly an exceptionally powerful tool, but it is also in the same "ease of use" category as programs like Photoshop. It also seems obvious that it is a real gift for those who are already skilled in using similar or previous versions. I, unfortunately, am not one of them. but it is fascinating to watch the "magic" it can do.
And thanks to pilou for bringing it to our attention. -

Nice. I know this going to sound like cavil whining, but without a voiceover explaining actions going on at the "speed of light", it pretty much reduces the result to "man, isn't it awesome what can be done, I wonder what he was doing to make that happen".
Nevertheless, thank you for the url

actually they have A LOT to fix on it... I tried to...try it. There are 2 executables, one for OpenGL 4 and one for 3.3. My video card runs 3.3 (verified), still the program said it cannot run because my OpenGL version is lower than 3.3 ... But as everybody said... promising, but yet not ready for production.

Actually it's Awesome Bump 4.0
