Thanks Bobby
Not sure I understand the plugin, but I do see that there are two separate downloads on the page, 32 bit and 64 bit.

Probably just confused, but did you say that you used normal maps in TG?

I still don't get how any app can get normals from a photograph. It has to interpret colors or light/dark, and as soon as a feature is light, but low, it will be interpreted as high. So I don't really believe normal map or displacement map makers (unless from a 3D modeler of course), unless you check them carefully and rework if necessary.

I dunno Ulco, the image I posted has only displacement from the alleged "normal" maps and looks pretty darn convincing to me.
