TIP OF THE DAY
I'm back just to share a very simple trick that I didn't know before: how and where to find the GIMP plugin for Normal Maps. This is a very useful plugin as it works like Nvidia plugin for Photoshop, but it runs on GIMP and therefore on Linux.
So: I first decided to download sources and compile it on my own... I've solved some dependencies but I was still stuck on a "Package gimp-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. [...]". Too much time. I was needing it to work immediately.
Then I discovered the packages:
- gimp-data-extras
- gimp-plugin-registry
These packages come with lots of plugin, and what I need is under
Filter -> Map -> NormalMap
Ready to use and working like a charm.
