Difference In Normal Map Handling Blender 2 79 And 2 82 Materials And I have a very basic scene with an orthographic camera, a point light and a plane with an image texture normal map applied to it, as you can see in the node setup. Unless you construct a very unusual uv map, you can't reliably use a normal map to smoothly shade a flat shaded mesh. the normal map stores a difference between the mesh normal and the desired normal.

Difference In Normal Map Handling Blender 2 79 And 2 82 Materials And Bakes all materials, textures, and lighting except specularity. the passes that contribute to the combined pass can be toggled individually to form the final map. You baked a 32 bit float normal map in srgb and saved it in 8 bit. float normal maps are linear and must be set to that or non color prior to baking. As with other aspects of blender 2.8’s node based material system, the changes and improvements also affect how materials make use of normal maps, the external bitmap image variety common to game or content creation. **exact steps for others to reproduce the error** i would suggest baking normals from linking a b&w bump to the displacement input of the material output in both 2.79 and 2.80 to see the results. i've included a test file for you.

I’ve generated a normal map by connecting a height map to the output node displacement and baking. the result is a weirdly light normal map, but it doesn’t really work perfectly in glsl, because the light blue color that indicates “flat” isn’t really facing the real normal of a face, apparently. Blender’s opengl viewport uses, well, opengl, so it naturally evaluates normal maps in opengl. it makes sense for cycles to use the same as the opengl viewport. there are fortunately only two common formats, which isn’t that hard to keep track of. Normal maps encode the surface shading using three axes xyz represented by rgb colors, so it can compute the shading in every direction. it’s a more modern technique and more accurate even in close ups, and probably more expensive as well. In this video, i will show you how to add normal map into a material using node editor in blender cycles 2.79.
