  • laigter

    Laigter: automatic normal map generator for sprites!

    • Laigter (GitHub repository)

  • DeepNormals

    Code and Dataset from Deep Normal Estimation for Automatic Shading of Hand-Drawn Characters

    • I also tried a learning-based project DeepNormals which shows very good results. However, it is an academic project and can only be used for non-commercial purposes.

  • InfluxDB

  • AwesomeBump

    AwesomeBump is a free program written using Qt library designed to generate normal, height, specular or ambient occlusion textures from a single image. Since the image processing is done in 99% on GPU the program runs very fast and all the parameters can be changed in real time. AB was made to be a new alternative to known gimp plugin called Insane Bump.

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