Source/GIMP normal map color correction

However you may want to fine tune the result since GIMP considers RGB color #7f7fff to be flat, while the Source engine considers #8080ff to be flat. This means that you will have to increase every pixel in your image by 1 unit red and 1 unit green. TODO: How on earth do you do that? Is there some way to adjust the standard flat color?
