I haven't the slightest clue how to turn a black and white bump map to a purpley greeny normal map.

Halp.

Nvidia has a tool that also comes as a plugin for Photoshop. Google it.

you can compile it through tool.exe, then in guerilla, put the bitmap type as "height map", then recompile again to get the normals.

Not doing this for halo. Also halo converts them poorly.
