I've got a newbie question. Would it be possible to make your own Bump images, with something like photoshop, or can it only be done with some kind of developer's tool?
I noticed that the bump maps looked like colored "emboss" images, and I was wondering if the image effect "emboss" would have the same effect as the bump images.
To try and clearify what I mean; Here's an example.
This image is an untouched mask; Basic Mask
and the same image, with the "emboss" effect; Embossed Mask
See, it looks similar to the bump images, but colorless. Now, would that work as a bump image?
