i am a total noob 
so sorry if im not making any sense i only took the leap from 2d to 3d i have already created my model with matcaps and when i load it into lightwave there are no more matcaps plz help 
or atleast they don’t show up
Hi Matcaps aren’t supported by external 3D apps. but there’s a tutorial on ZB classroom to how to bake them in textures, if i remember well.
search also for Steve Warner’s tutorials for Lw–>ZB and vice versa on his website. Even if they are for 3.0 they are way helpful to understand the process.
Lw also has special nodes by Dpont for displacement and normal maps
thank you so much my i swear my brain almost well… imagine this but more f@cked up :evil:
