Dear all,

Whatever I set here, in Deep Exploration, it doesn't seem to solve my problem with getting bump maps into Virtual Sailor NG (8.0).

Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated!

EDIT: I'm sorry for being short on words, but I am rather clueless what I'm doing wrong. Also this is the first time ever I'm doing normal (bump) maps.

Ilan has helped me to make good use of the effects.cfg file. With that you can achieve bump and reflection effects for a ship.

please share that info.

Alright then. It is in the effects.cfg file that you type in the bump maps file names, along with their reflections and bump values. Like below in my case. Bellow the double-slashes are just templates of how you can use the effects.cfg.
