I'm sorry but this is a concept that needs talking. It could have been a great tutorial.

[@bshukrallah]

I definitely plan to make more videos detailing this. Thanks for watching!

Except you end up with a mountain of maps because you cannot condense textures or UVW's. Also, don't use the Painter presets, everybody uses them. Make your own.

[@bshukrallah]

I manually combine them in the photoshop, cuts down on the number of maps greatly.

[@TryptychUK]

I have done that too, but now I go the reverse, use only one base material and make up masks in PS and add them to painter to isolate the materials for different sections. It also means that you can add stuff like dirt and AO across material boundaries.

Ahh, good idea. I'll have to give that a shot! Thanks!

You're not painting anything. You're just stamping pure normal map channel. Useless.

Sorry about that, what would you like to see? Thanks for checking it out anyway!
