Hi,

I rendered a texture for you to play around with normal-mapping shaders with and without specularity. You can add the spec-map into the alpha channel if you need it.

This is a gift for you. Use it!

Maybe it is a good idea to put the finished version of the JCL-shader into the WIKI as an alternative to the 2.0 shader from Matt.

Best regards,
Frank

Hi Frank_G

Thanks so much

Hi JCL

Can you post your screenshot so I know what it looks like, I still can't get this shader to work. Plus I can't get the other 3light shader by xXxGuitar511, the objects just look black and it does not matter how many time I change any of the variables nothing makes them lighter.

@MaxF: I can send you the environment I used for testing the shader if you want. Also, Are you sure you have a grafix card that supports VSPS 2.0?

Hi xXxGuitar511

That would be GREAT

My card supports VSPS 3.00, its probably me doing something wrong.

Send me a PM for my email address

Sorry to bring up this old thread. I run into problem when apply
this shader to my model :

Malfunction W1550
-----------------
normalMapping(4): error X3000: syntax error: unexptected token 'mtl_bump'
(15):error X1005: string continues past end of line
(16):error X1507: failed to open source file: 'fog'

>MATERIAL mtl_bump<

Any ideas?

That's just a syntax error. Maybe you attempted to put a material into a .fx file. Material definitions belong into script files (.wdl), .fx is for the bare effects only.

Ah yes, that's my fault, it works great now.
Thank you.

Can someone send a test level to me to learn how to use it?

Yes is there a test level for this ? I learn more by a example then looking at the stuff on a forum or site
