Detail Normal Texture Splatting resources

I have compiled some detail normal textures for the upcoming (101) engine.
They contain the diffuse channels in the alpha. They are uncompressed .tga files because that presents a good way to distribute them.

The diffuse is highpass filtered to reduce tiling when zoomed out.

Here is the guide on using detail normal textures: https://springrts.com/wiki/Mapdev:splatdetailnormals

Here is the resource collection. All textures are from the nobiax texture pack, license PD.

Here it is all zipped up:

Thanks! That's really handy.

Any chance of a zip?

Here's a more complete list with the .png "originals" that also contain specular/normals and other stuff Spring doesn't use such as height/glow/emissive.
The uncategorized ones (in the root folder) are what I consider junk/unusable.

This is all based on post by Yak.

This is awsome, great work looking forward to the 101 normal mapped goodness.

Important note:

Only uncompressed (non DDS) textures have support for anisotropic filtering. Thus it is recommended to keep them in their .tga formats.

Left is .tga, right is .dds:

Is this a bug? Or should this be wikified? If all .dds types cause significant quality loss then it should not be listed as a format https://springrts.com/wiki/Mapdev:splatdetailnormals

This isnt a bug per se, in fact its a new feature added by Kloot. Im pretty sure he had good reasons not to add anisotropy to .dds textures.

The new feature is basically that SSMF layers get anisotropic filtering, if they are non-dds images.

One of the reasons I used a lot of dds was that they could get sharpened mips, which offset a little bit of the complete lack of anisotropy on all ssmf layers.

Updated wiki

I know its a major bump but did beherith ever release a map using the new DNTS?

If you want to see it, I re-released following including DNTS :

You can see it by open full zoom pics.

My others creation without «FabriceFABS» tag will be updated soon with DNTS features.

Finally glad we can now play Spring>100 to see it 8)
