Thomas, OK…I meant that there are bumpy textures not bump maps included with 2.9 plus (which produce the same kind of thing in a way) but that bumpy textures can be rendered AS bump maps by applying a texture to a plane and putting the camera above it looking straight down on it. In fact any texture could be applied to the plane. After its rendered (ilbm-24bit!!!) you can apply it to something as a bump map (Altitude) – don't forget to change to size of the y axis to 3 or more (or whatever 🙂 ). As regards 24 bit, in quick -YES-, Imagine renders in 24bit set the QUFF parameter in the preferences editor to ilbm-24bit and away you go. As the bomb said in 'Dark Star' "This is fun.", please ask again if its not clear. Best Regards, Barrie R Scott er…Hi Michael (Dad ?) <g>
