Normal Map offset

Rozzy85 · Mar 2015

I've been trying to use XN instead of progressive for rendering out normal maps as the progressive renderer has an artifact issue I can't find a solution for. XN doesn't have the same issue but has another issue of it's own. For some reason the output always comes out offset by 1 pixel no matter the chosen resolution. I've disabled as many options as I can and tried different sample sizes, anti-aliasing, etc but none of it makes any difference.

If you aren't using padding (8px or more), you should, it will get rid of visible seams like that, and the offset might not be a problem then.

The padding doesn't solve the problem though as the map doesn't align properly with the UV causing horrible seams to appear at the edges.
