Why 127 is the new 128
Please enlighten or correct me as to where I'm wrong thinking on this notion ...or I may just be tilting at windmills... I understand that when you take a number, say like, 255 [(a hole number integer) out of context] and divide it by 2 you get 127.5 and thus, through comprehensible rounding, bring it to 128 and provide… -

I'll just chalk this one up as another pro when deciding whether or not to buy a new card. Just to show you what's actually happening when I try to load… -

Re: tutorial: fixing mirrored normal map seams
OK warby I found something similar to what you're saying. I think you're using unsigned normal maps, which for your engine means a 128 color is considered a non-bent normal (pointing straight up on X/red). Here's a quote from one of our graphics programmers: [ QUOTE ] Signed normal maps are useful for helping to hide… -
Re: DDS photoshop plugin explained
I didn't know what unsigned vs. signed means, so I asked one of the programmers here. Here's how he explained it to me. I added emphasis to highlight the meat of the issue... "Actually, we do use signed textures for normal maps, although we dont support loading them at the moment. The unsigned normal maps are converted.…
