Hi Bulet
The nvidia normal map plugin is for Photoshop has nothing to do with your grathics card (and its free), it add work from photoshop to a normal make made in maya, I have used it to create a machine gun grip. Joey81 I think there is a free tutorial on this site for baking normal maps............dave
