Object Space Normals To Tangent Space Normals

A modo kit by @csprance to convert an OSN to a TSN directly inside of modo using xNormal.

xNormal must be installed on the users system in order to convert between the two different maps.

Installation

This is a modo kit so install it like normal. I've only tested this on Modo 12, but I don't think it's doing anything fancy. Let me know if you run into any issues and if it works on other versions of modo!

• Extract/Clone into %appdata%/Luxology/Kits

• Restart modo

How to use

• Select low poly meshes to use

• Right Click on the Object Space normal texture in the clips browser in modo and select "Convert OSN -> TSN"

• On first run you will need to set your xNormal path from the dialog that opens up

• Texture will be converted and imported into the clip browser

Uninstallation process

• Delete cs_osn_to_tsn from %appdata%/Luxology/Kits
