[Tutorial] Ripping Guide for Animal Crossing New Horizons

[Fluffy McMalamute]

Would you happen to know why the normal map is doing this? 
Here it is without the normal map,

then plugged in it makes everything black,

but when the map is inverted then the back side almost looks right, just without lighting.

and then when it's all exported and in HLMV it's super shiny. 

I have absolutely no idea what I am doing.

Took me a sec to find which door you were using. May I ask if you modified the model at all? Is the Normal Map different colors?

When applying the materials as-is to the door after exporting and splitting the MIX map, only issue I am having is the Edge Light (I think that is what it's called?) is extremely bright and the normals look inverted on the wood parts of the door. Attached is my example (no edge lighting).

I haven't changed anything on the model. What do you mean by the normal map having different colours? I've attached all the maps I had. The way I applied the mix map was by using the separate RGB node. I do not know how to use the _Ocl or _EdgCod after I separate them out though.

I've also noticed that a lot of these maps look better after going through an invert node with the exception of alb colour.

A good example is the CuteClock. I did pose the bones.

This is the clock with the maps applied as Random Talking Bush laid them out.


This is just OP inverted


This is OP and roughness inverted


So I'm not sure if this inversion should be applied to every other object and to every map.

The reason why I asked about the normal map colors is that, occasionally, they are exported with...weird coloration, as if the RGB channels are swapped. Case in point: Try the normal map I am attaching to your door.

EDIT: Closer inspection, the BLUE channel appears to be incorrect.
