Hide the lighting layer (and change the pixel layer's blend mode back to Normal) to see the height map.Įdit the pixel layer (height map) to change the bumps.Īdd a mask layer to the pixel layer (height map) to turn the bumps on and off selectively. As displacement maps (also sometimes known as height maps) are modifying the underlying geometry, they need higher-resolution meshes to work with than bump maps, which can make them slower to work with. Hisoka, applicant 44, is seen as a heavy contender throughout the Hunter Exam. Hide the pixel layer to turn off the bumps. This gives you a layer that can provide your bump map: Depending on which tool is used varying amounts of control can be had over the resulting normal map in terms of how strong the bump effect is. and on my second try, remembered to set my colors to black and white, rather than black and dark green).Īdd to this second layer a Live Lighting layer of type 'Directional', with azimuth and elevation set appropriately. As with V1, we promised we’d release free updates for V2 when ready, and we’re thrilled to announce that.

This layer will get your heightmap (I used Filters -> Noise -> Perlin. At the end of last year, we released Version 2 of Affinity Photo, Affinity Designer and Affinity Publisher, delivering new versions of our award-winning photo editing, graphic design and page layout software on Mac, Windows PC and iPad. Call it 'grass'.Ĭreate another pixel layer on top of that. You might have to dedicate a layer to your bump map, but you'll be able to edit it locally.Ĭreate a pixel layer, give it a solid color (I'm using a darkish green, #1d710c. I think I see a way to do what you're trying to do.

all without the trial & error of editing a separate image. Examples: erase a portion of the bump map where you want no texture, alter the contrast of the bump map, rotate, re-size the bump map, etc. That makes it very difficult to edit the bump map in context of the image you are applying it to.īy allowing an existing layer within the open document to be used as the bump map, you could easily modify it and quickly see the results. its in vector and I didnt adjust how Affinity Designer handles corners. With an imported bump map, you can't make any edits to the bump map without opening it as a separate document. As you describe Lazy mouse, its the same as Affinitys Rope stabiliser. However I think entering or selecting the layer name in the Lighting filter panel would be preferred over the 'Use layers below' approach in the DM filter) I would also like the option to use an existing layer within the open document as the bump map (Much like the way the Displacement Map filter allows you to use another layer as the source. The Live Lighting Filter allows you to import an image to use as a bump map.
