Help making good maps in Gimp ?
#5
I got a screenshot of "Bounding Box Materialize" and it makes all sorts of maps from a source file (jpeg in example)  https://i.imgur.com/2INkJGi.jpg

Not as comprehensive but there is a Gimp plugin InsaneBump that will make some of those: height map - normal map  and the result might / might-not be an improvement. https://i.imgur.com/V3yJHxj.jpg

Then of course it might be nothing to do with the image, could be the game rendering engine producing that effect.

notes:
InsaneBump Gimp plugin is old. Maybe not so easy to find these days, the attached Windows 64 bit version is 1.0.5 It does work with Gimp 2.10.12. Might throw up errors but still renders the maps. Base image has to be on disk. Maps rendered to the same place.  Find in Filters -> Map -> Insanebump 
There are also various other versions on GitHub if you search.

If you decide to try it, the usual, Unzip. put the file gimp-plugin-insanebump.exe in C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\plug-ins
