no it can't be done like glow mapping, glow mapping was a bit of a hack at that, all I did was render a poly twice with a diferent texture and diferent render states

bump maping is going to be a major thing to get done, and is probly a year or two down the road

It's not the maps that matter, it's the mathematical calculations you need to do on 'em to get the correct shadowing effects.

Pff, ask CP. He'll probably get 'em done by tomorrow morning.
