Does anyone know of any good tutorials that explain how to create tangent independant normal maps?

You could also try this, it explains it a little better.

But you must face the fact that it definatly isnt going to be a simple one line of code answer. :)

Picture example.
left to right:
1. Normal map created from high-poly version.
2. Low poly model.
3. Low poly model with DOT3 normal map applied.
4. Low poly model without normal map.
