Hello,
Ever since I learned how to apply normal maps to CMOD models, I've gone crazy about them, trying to use them as much as possible. Here is Ceres for an example:
Now, I wish to find a normal map for Neptune's moon Triton, but do not know where to get one, if one exists, that is...
Does anyone here happen to have a normal map for Triton?
Thanks,

Well there is no proper topography data of Triton avalible to my knowledge. Since its surface is very flat and the Voyager data somewhat limited I believe creating a DEM will be quite difficult (but maybe locally possible). That in mind, the best thing you can hope for is an artist's concept and I actually know one such fictional texture: https://kexitt.deviantart.com/art/Triton-maps-673821587

Ah yes, I do remember seeing that normal map...
I was looking for a normal map that would have the same 14k resolution as the highest resolution Triton texture available, though that may be asking too much.
I guess we'll simply have to wait until a new space probe is sent to the Neptunian system...
