Additionals features like material textures or grunge maps are available.

'AwesomeBump is a free and open source program written using Qt library designed to generate normal, height, specular or ambient occlusion, metallic, roughness textures from a single image. Here is the programs description in case you don't want to check out the link. It is for Windows only (though I think they are working on a Linux version too) and it is not a super simple installation.Īpparently it runs off of something called QT Library, and either I installed QT Library incorrectly or I installed Awesome Bump wrong (I'm more of a Mac user, so I'm not as familiar at the moment with some of the terms referred to) it's probably very easy (for experienced windows users) to install because several of the people who tried it at the site where I first read about it, really liked it and seemed to have no problem using it. I'm gonna check out some of the above suggestions, but I figured I should add another (free) possibility to the list. I've been meaning to get Crazy Bump for some time, but I've been holding out hoping that one day there will be a sale (fat chance) or maybe someone will come up with something similar, but cheaper.

For people on a nonexistent or limited budget.
