Photoshop has those filters because it used to support 3D models in the editor. PSP doesn't. There is a plugin for this that can work with PSP though I've never used it nor do I truly know anything about it. I found this old article on it though - https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wik ... t_Shop_Pro

There are also free editors that can do this, I don't know for sure but it's possible you can do it with Blender.

I have version 10 that I haven't used in a while.
1. With which filter can it be done there?
2. Why download commands from newer versions?
Thanks

I don't know what you're asking.

As I stated, PaintShop Pro (all versions) have Zero 3D material map creatings. If you want to use PaintShop Pro you need to use a plugin as outlined in the article I pasted above. If you're saying you have Photoshop version 10, then the video you posted might have what you need. If not, then it's from before those commands.

I don't know what you mean by "why download commands from newer versions?" You can't download commands from newer versions.

EDIT:
I was recently reminded of AwesomeBump - it's a generator for textures. It can create all of the maps you wanted, and gives a demo of them being applied to a 3D object as you edit and play around.
