General Anim8or Forum / Re: Bump maps and shading preferences

Hello Steve!

Thanks for the quick response! I feel kind of stupid now. The NVIDIA-card wasn't selected as default graphic card on my system. I just assumed because its in there it would automatically be the default. Everything works great now just as you described and I can see the bump map and the normal map in all the environments.

Thanks again and good evening!

General Anim8or Forum / Bump maps and shading preferences
« on: February 12, 2020, 12:46:09 pm »
Hello everyone,

I'm new to the forum and fairly new to 3d modelling. I've started to go through an old tutorial (made for maya but still useful) to explore anim8or and really like it but there are a few things i ran into:

1. bump maps vs normal maps. On my computer bump maps do show up in the workspace but normal maps only show after rendering. Is this how anim8or works or is this related to my hardware setup or an anim8or setting. Choosing a different shader (GLSL, ARB or Opengl) doesn't make a difference (see also second question)

2. Bump maps do show up in the workspace when i choose ARB as shader. But then I have no lights preview in the scene environment. If I choose GLSL I do have lights but lose the bumpmaps. Is this also hardware/driver related?

3. I keep getting an error logging in on this forum which says I am banned because there where to many accounts on my IP-adress. Am I doing something wrong or is this site-related?


Thanks in advance for your help!


My laptop specs are:
Intel core i7
