This is good stuff! I love seeing these kinds of threads, and the inquisitive minds behind them. It seems you are interested in technical art. This is exactly how many tech artists get started, by researching topics, trying to figure out how they work, and trying to improve on them with their own work. I'm thinking of… -

Yeah it seems its hard to use it, personally I can't imagine how to make a map for it. I was thinking about it a bit, and the UDK example must be done with vertex colors because world position offset eats only that, vectors, and maths. -
Re: Alternative solutions, possibly next gen solutions...
Yeah, Simon's thread is epic. I learned a lot from it. Its also a great example for alternative solutions. As for the old portfolio thing, actually I have no problem with them, just the most of them are actually old, and unfortunately I haven't had time to update. Also, I know there are issues with the current… -

I think this should need 4 channels (r,g,b,a) to store the direction and the amount. A positive side can be against simple displacement is that you need less detailed basemesh with this. The ear or…
