Tileable normal map

by Lorne McIntosh · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 04/14/2008 (5:14 pm) · 1 replies

Does anyone know if I can create a 3D model with the diffuse texture coordinates different from the normal texture coordinates? What I am trying to create is a large wall with 1 diffuse texture that is not repeated and when you walk close to it, there is subtle normal mapping that is tiled just so that the texture doesn't look flat. Thanks

    Assuming that wrapping is enabled, multiply the UV coords in the texture fetch.

    in GLSL this would be:

    vec3 nMap = texture2D(tex#, texCoords*10.0);

    Don't ask me what it is in HLSL (probably almost identical). If wrapping isn't enabled then you have to offset it yourself, which is just a simple rollover.
