Does anyone know if the bump map is a "classic bump map" in Indigo or if the engine turns it into displacement kind of thing?
At the moment the quality is not quite there for me =( It looks good from a distance, but the detail gets lost in close-up shot (even when using high resolution texture). So i'm assuming, that the bump map really is a classic bump map and nothing more. Am i right?

It's a classic bump map, no displacement. It merely perturbs the normals.

Gotcha! Thanks.
Any plans to implement a displacement kind of thing in a future? (not another request..just a general wondering

)

perhaps

I think that the result is excellent considering the very low quality of the map that I have used.

map....(4 kb!!!!!!!!!!!)

Well.. it actually seems low on those renders too. Don't get me wrong. Indigo does a perfect job with bump maping. I'm just saying, that the amount of details is not as good as it would be by using displacement maping.
