And how about simple bump map? Is it already their in the last (commercial) version. It was not the case in the demo one (0.81)
There's no difference between current commercial and demo one
Except UI changes, save scene, save render

Bump is coming at the same time than the Normals... I think ... But I can't say more :lol:

I'll be waiting for it very patiently.
In the architectural field it's hard to render without it...

Well I think its more about raising the memory than the render time
At least in the other engines I tried. We will see ;)

Certainly not as good as the bugMonster and done on 81a but you can simulate some amount of normal mappingin the current version.

Here is what it looks like is ShaderMap Pro

Since normal mapping is not in the older alpha version, I used texture baking to give the relief effect.

The object used is a flat multi-segmented cube.
