Hi everyone,
I wanted to share two free browser-based tools that may be useful for preparing images, textures, and visual assets for PTE/AV projects.
NormalMap AI is a free normal map and PBR texture generator:
https://normalmap.ai/?utm_source=pteavstudio&utm_medium=forum_post&utm_campaign=backlink_2026
It can generate normal, roughness, ambient occlusion, metallic, height, and ORM maps from an uploaded color/albedo image, with a real-time 3D preview. The uploaded-image workflow runs locally in the browser via WebGL, so it can be useful when experimenting with displacement/normal-style effects or preparing texture assets.

I also build PhotoQuill, a free web-based Photoshop alternative for quick 2D image editing, cleanup, cropping, and texture/image preparation:

Both tools run in the browser and are free to try. I hope they may be useful to some members here who work with images, slideshows, textures, or visual effects.
Best regards,
Tools Crazy
