Title: invalid bump
Post by: GT4505 on June 30, 2014, 01:33:11 PM

Hi There,

I'm using RC for a few months now, but in the last few projects I've encountered the following problem several times.
If I use the preset (street road drain01 for example, in this case) I get a lot of invalid bump normal warning messages.
This also gives me strange artefacts and reflections.
Have a look at my attachments please.

How can I fix this?
Thank you,
Pieter van Stee

Probably this problem is caused by the "Normal Bump" texture used in several materials of this library. For the next RC update we'll replace them by "VRayNormalMap" (as suggested by ChaosGroup here (http://forums.chaosgroup.com/showthread.php?76451-normal-map-make-max-crash-issue-%28&highlight=invalid+bump)).

Until then, please replace these textures manually in your scene and try. Hopefully that should solve the problem.

Hi,

thank you for your reply.
I'll try to replace them and see what happens.
