Anisotropic Texture Filtering in Maya with HLSL

kodde

Hey guys,

I tried searching for this but was unable to find any answer.

Does anyone know if it is possible to get anisotropic texture filtering in Maya's viewport with HLSL shaders? I just started out learning coding HLSL shaders and I cannot get it working. Could this be a limitation in Maya or am I doing something wrong?

I'm following Ben's CG Academy DVDs.

this is the syntax

sampler2D diffuseMapSampler = sampler_state
{
  Texture       = <diffuseMap>;
  MinFilter     = Anisotropic;
  MagFilter     = Linear;
  MipFilter     = Linear;
  AddressU      = Wrap;
  AddressV      = Wrap;
  MaxAnisotropy = 8;
  MipMapLodBias = -0.5;
};

Thank you!
Works just fine. Haven't seen a difference with the MipMapLodBias parameter, but I haven't had that much time to try it out yet.
