Default Location of ocean/pond normal map(s)
Does anyone know where these are? I've managed to find the textures used for basin and pool water but I cannot find the only ones I actually want.

Here ya go:

0x00B2D882-0x00000000-0x40F042C2AEEEEE51 (WaterWaveNoise, but is actually a normal map)
0x00B2D882-0x00000000-0xCDE7489127C9F9BB (SeaWaterSigned, but you need to look at my tutorial here to see what it is as it's compressed: https://modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=623819 )

Not related to the question, but in case you want to edit the way the ponds/seas are rendered from an ini level: 
0x1F886EAD-0x00000000-0xACCBE67EB1D18C2C

Now the ini is talking about a Level1 and level2 texture somewhere, but I think that refers to pools

That's the one! Thanks. I originally opened the uncompressed file without realising what it was and was thrown off because of how odd it looked.

Also, are these the only true normal maps in TS3? I was actually pretty surprised they weren't just bump maps.
