Alright so i decided i would try and put one of Bond1's shaders on a segment. I tried to use this shader, norm_spec_tangentbasis.fx. It looked fine, until i applied it to more segments. Now when im walking in the segment (tunnel), the close tunnel segment looks different from the farther tunnel segment. Im trying to figure out where the closer tunnel segment's texture came from, but i just what to know if i can fix this. I have attached the higher quality image, and i also will post a screenshot below:



EDIT - Does anyone know how to convert .dds to .jpg, or the other way around? Im completly new to doing stuff like that so i have no idea. Do i have to have a certain program to do it? If anyone can help i will be very happy!

Looks like the normal map is using a weird metal texture... strange. Check and make sure all the maps you are using are for the correct segment.

And to convert dds to jpg or most any other format use Irfanview. That is ofcourse if all you want to do is convert/ resize etc.

Cheers,
Anayar

I like to use DXTBMP to convert in the .dds file type. This program is designed specifically for it.
I don't know much about shaders but I just had to blurt that out.

Heres a link to the program:

I've resolved the problems with the .dds thing, and im still trying to figure out what is going wrong in my image. I have no idea where that metal texture is coming from, that's what's throwing me off... Thanks for commenting guys!
