Bump Mapping with ZETools

I'm trying to add a bump map over my model.
I'm doing my exports with the ZETools.
I've already adjusted the ZeroEngine_flags with the correct polygon area which shall participate of the bump map effect.

My question is can I add a path like this into the tex 1-3 fields?
Or is it completely wrong?

Anyway the texture ingame looks just a bit darker and has no more details on it.
Plus the alpha channel of both textures seems to be equals.
The tga.option file does also exist.

no, you just add the name of the texture. Remove the complete path. With the new MeshViewer you can directly check whether it is working or not.

It doesn't work. =(
I've still the same result.
Here is a comparision.
Left side without bump mapping and right side with bump mapping.
It remains dark and I think this can't be the sense of bump mapping.
I even see no change in the msh viewer.

You need directional lighting on your map with lighting settings on High in the game for bump maps to show up. It also depends on what your bump map .tga looks like, as well as what is in the corresponding .tga.option file.
