I wonder how long it will take for us to figure out how to add normal maps to the client :/
The later model formats used by the client (from OoW+) support normal maps. It's possible to convert zones from the old format to the new format, and gain support for normal maps that way, but it's tough to get everything about zones correct (and may be seen as cheating, since you might not be able to make the zonelines 100% the same...). Weapon models would be easier, but would require the devs to change GlobalLoad.txt to put a new-format weapon model file above all the gequip# files, to allow overriding old-format weapons with new-format ones. Animated models would be a pain.
