Combine Albedo Map and Normal map?

[Paperciso]

Hey guys, long time lurker here, just now registered.
I have a question, I got a Model that has 2 maps, and albedo map and a normal map, and I have to combine/mix the two of them in one map, so I can have the colors/texture and the depth/normal map in just one map and not have 2, the reason being because the software I’ll be working my model in doesn’t support Normal mapping, thus leaving me only with the albedo map but with no details, is there a way to do this? I’m using the Blender Reder, watched lots of videos and blogs but no one its giving me a solution. Hope I posted this in the right category.

Ok, so someone helped me do it, if you want to do it here are the steps. When you’re ready you have to full bake it, so it merge the two maps together in just one image without having more trouble.

@JohnVV

you do not

now IF the model is ONLY shown from ONE direction and the lighting WILL NEVER change you can use the normal to shade the texture

but you will want to convert the normal to a z distance height map

or use the normal to add details to the lowres mesh and turn it into a hires mesh
a displacement ( convert normal to heightmap) map would be easier to work with

Yes, I want it like that, I like the details the Normal Maps gives to the Albedo and I would like it do have it like that, how would I go to do it?
