Install

normalMagic is installed as an asset library in Blender. There is an optional add-on included with the Pro version that makes setting up the modifiers easier.

Asset Library

TLDR

Download the .zip, extract to a folder, add the folder as an asset library.

For more detailed instructions see below.

For more information on asset libraries you can check Blender's Official Documentation

  1. Download latest .zip file for the closest Blender version (normalMagic 4.5 v1.0.blend).
  2. Unzip/extract to a folder in your desired location.
  3. Open Blender and go to Edit/Preferences/File Paths/Asset Libraries.
  4. Click + Add Asset Library. install_1
  5. Navigate to the unzipped folder and press Add Asset Library (make sure you are in the root "normalMagic" folder, not the catalogs one). install_2
  6. You should now see "normalMagic" in your asset libraries.
    Optional: Here you can choose how the data is imported in by default. See the Official Documentation for more information. install_3

normalMagic should now be installed. Modifiers will now show up under the Add Modifier menu. install_check
