This pack contains two custom-made bump maps* (interior and exterior) for the Spijkers & Wingtips MD-500 (v.3+). The bump map adds extra detail to the MD-500 model; including rivets, welding seams, folds, and compartment outlines - all of which react to the changing light in Second Life. Click "watch it in action" above to see what I mean.
In addition, the pack comes with modified blue, red, yellow, and moss green (exclusive to this pack) "fast stripes" paint textures; all designed to complement the bump map. All textures have been polished and updated with additional details (with the bump map replacing the flat rivets of previous versions). The bump map will also work with other third-party paint textures and Spijkers & Wingtips' default skins.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
* Note: you will only be able to see bump and shine with advanced lighting enabled in a compatible viewer. Please make sure you can view bump maps before purchase.
Also note that these are **textures only** for the Spijkers & Wingtips MD-500 v.3 light helicopter. The MD-500 aircraft is available as a free gift for members of "Spijkers & Wingtips" group in-world. For more information please contact Spijkers & Wingtips (Tig Spijkers).

Well done!
If you know how to manually apply diffuse, normal, and specular textures to individual faces of a mesh, as well as edit the glossiness and environment of the specular, this pack will spruce up your free MD 500 without breaking the bank! Thanks to the creator for this pack.
It does not work...
... I dont see any welding seams, folds and compartment outlines.
And yes, sure, advanced lighting is enabled in the newest viewer.
This textures are to old for the actually MD500!
Five stars for this one!
Excellent job, great price!
Great job !
Yes it makes the MD 500 more realistic ( and made me discover bump maps :)
Textures are really great too, and there are 4, for a really fair price ! Thank you :)
Make sure to read the (well explained) manual if you're not used to bump maps (and texturing).
Incredibly well done paint and bump (normal) maps. This really transforms the MD-500
The bump (normal) map provides very realistic rivets both on the airframe and in the cockpit. Additional small details also are apparent on the landing gear, tail and rotor. And... you get paints included. This really enhances your MD-500.
really well made!
its a very good item for a already very nice free helicopter and with the bump maps it looks like a new one.
but attention, you need to activate the advanced light mode in your viewer to see the bump maps!
my one wasnt it, so i was trying and trying to apply it and without Buffy Foster's help i would try it still today - so thank you very much, Buffy! ;)
and thanks to Freezing too for changing the how-to-do-notecard with an information about it.
