Help with bump map? [solved] Aug 5, 2017 0:29:49 GMT -5

Hello! I need some help with making a bump map.
I followed SYLD's tutorial but I think I must've missed something.
My mesh (the shirt) looks really shiny and it also effects the skin. (Look at the shoulders).

This is what my bump map looks like: imgur.com/4Km4LUn (It's saved as .png here so that I can show you but in my package it is .dds)
I admit my bump map looks a little rough, not smooth like SYLD's even though I did blur it a bit.

Here is my blend: simfileshare.net/download/287757/
Here is my package: simfileshare.net/download/287760/

Thank you for the help. :Pikachu

hi! I exported the .dds normal from the package and it has a white alpha. I would re do the texture again following the tutorial step by step from 24° onward. You didn't copy the red channel to the alpha.

Also remember to save the file as dds dxt5 with alpha.

Hi, thank you for responding so quickly.

You were right.
I tried it again it seems to have worked...I think. The skin looks better now, it's not affected anymore. I mean, it looks better but how do I know that it's working for sure? imgur.com/OCMnPL8
