However, normal maps use three channels of information (RGB) instead of just one (grayscale). How are normal maps created? Unlike bump maps, which can be created by hand, normal maps must be generated using a specific tool designed for creating normal maps. For free normal mapper tools, see: ATI tools (NormalMapper) Nvidia tools (Melody) Get it now in the download section.   Version 3.0 released November 1, 2007 Ultimate Unwrap 3D v3.0 is here!
