Feature Request: Normal/Parallax Mapping on Animated Models

Post by AndyCR »

I would personally like to see a feature which I feel Irrlicht is sorely lacking: normal/parallax mapping on animated models.

hello

You can use opengl and these effects as they dont need to recalculate the tangents(which only work on nonanimated meshes)


if you want dx9 i will have to write you a custom bumpmap shqader that doesnt need these tangent calculatiuons

if you would like to do that, that would be incredible! i'd prefer to make an announcement later when it's done, but it's for a new version of a major open source project. we couldn't thank you enough if you want to do that!
