Bump Map Acceleration 2004-02-19 - By Baker, Ed
Back
Thanks,
I'll have to try more when I have more time. But the mapping is set up
properly . . .2 differeent faces (of the coin that is) with ridges
around the outside. I'll have to check my card, don't know much about
the work one, and just got a new machine at the house.

Ed,
It bump mapping seems to work for me here.
I have a geforce4 ti 4200 using quadro 4 drivers with the softquadro4
patch. It seems to work best for me under directx than OpenGl -
although both do work. Just tested it with 1 simple scene and one more
complicated scene and both worked. One thing to note, if you are
updating the textures as you go along, they may not update in the solid
view properly. It also only shows bump textures, not bump shaders.
Another thing to check is your UV mapping, if it is a coin then default
mapping is probably cylindrical, so you wont see your bump map on the
top until you assign the top face to be planar.
