      oh nice, yeah the original textures are just bump maps, I plugged them into the normal map node and it looked good enough so I just went with it, but I’ve heard about how bump maps =/= normal maps and it can cause problems, so that might be a nice addon for this kind of stuff

      Yeah Halo CE comes from the wonderful era where bump mapping was new and a free way to add detail without adding polys, has a beautiful technical aesthetic, kinda like Half-Life 2
