I've also attached the original test png and three converted dds files for anyone who wants to have a look.ĮDIT: The issue seems to go away if you set shader quality to lowest. Crunch also doesn't support BC7 compression.

I want to use compressonator over the other two programs as a), it would be extremely tedious converting 20+ maps in, and b) crunch for some reason doesn't support 16-bit PNGs as input. With the compressonator, I also tried ATI2N_XY, ATI2N_DXT and BC5 to no avail (same result as shown in the picture). Tool Blend Modes The Paint Bucket, Paintbrush, Pencil, Clone Stamp, Text, Shapes, Gradient and Line/Curve tools all have options to utilize a blend mode as they are used.

Paint.Net: BC5 (Linear) (from the export dds2 plugin)Īs far as I'm aware, the three formats listed above are all exactly the same. The forum is a great place for asking questions, getting tips and discovering how to use the less intuitive features of. source which is bundled with the substance plugin in Unreal Studio. These are the settings I used to for each program: Texture mapping is similar to applying wallpaper, paint to a real object. As you can see, the shading is completely incorrect, making parts of the car appear in shadow where they shouldn't. The rest of the car uses normal maps converted by Compressonator. The converted normal map produced by these two programs is correct. The Chassis uses a normal map that has been exported either with Paint.Net or Crunch. The issue is that the normal maps come out 'wrong' in BeamNG they look as though they've been flipped. I've been trying to use command line interface of Compressonator to convert my png normal maps to dds.
