AwesomeBump VS mhx2-makehuman-exchange

- You can generate some texture maps digitally, there are both online and offline tools for that. The later group includes Materialize and AwesomeBump, among others. Have in mind that generating any of these texture maps with an automatic tool (from an albedo texture) will be less accurate than manually making it yourself, a more laborious process that involves taking pictures with different lighting setups or baking them from a higher poly mesh.

Try making it with Awesome Bump

Awesome Bump is amazing for creating supporting textures, like normal's from a single diffuse texture. It fills in a lot of gaps

AwesomeBump is another free and open-source tool to generate various maps, including the normal map.

MHX2 for Blender plugin GitHub - makehumancommunity/mhx2-makehuman-exchange: Downstream fork of MHX2 I install the plugin into Blender and then export with .mhx2 format from MakeHuman into Blender and select OverRideExportedData on import and for the rig I select MHX (Not exported MHX just MHX so it generates a skeleton inside Blender). This provides every character I import with a well designed rig with an FK/IK switch so I can focus purely on animation.

Combine that with The MHX plugin for Blender GitHub - makehumancommunity/mhx2-makehuman-exchange: Downstream fork of MHX2 that will allow you to import your MakeHuman character which you exported with the .mhx format into Blender (export it without a skeleton). Upon import you select the pure MHX rig option and it auto creates an FK/IK switchable rig for you so you can hop straight into animation. Which leads me to:
