On the previous version of Freespace Open, which was installed by the Java installer there were presets and one had bump/normal mapping on the model skins. Is there any way to get this through Knossos mod manager? I'd love to play with those features again.

FSO supports normal maps by default. But if you play it without any mods, there are no normal maps to display in the base game. What you most likely want is the Freespace Upgrade Project, which is on Knossos under the title "Freespace Upgrade MediaVPs". That holds the most recent community recreations of the original ships, and they use plenty of normal mapping.
One knossos downloads the mod, just use the play button for that mod instead of the one for "retail FS2"
