Just a small demo of triplanar texture mapping + normal mapping in action over a procedurally generated surface.

To better show the effect, in this simple demo I used a brick texture over a very smooth terrain (generated using small values of "persistence").

Notice both methods have in common that you have to duplicate vertices.

very true, didn't even think about that.

If you think of a detailed mesh with thousands of triangles, those duplicated vertices are few in comparison to the total vertex count, so it's no problem an…

I'm stumped. Here's what information I could gather, throwing it out there in case someone can solve this, because I sure can't. 

I made a model that is fully triangulated, a box. In the .dae/collada file I get 72 uv values (s and t values), which would correspond to 36 vertices (3 for every tr…

I recall having this effect a number of times. In my case the cause were normals that didn't all point in the same direction. I'm not sure if there's a quick fix for it. Either anti-aliasing as mentioned (but I doubt that), or maybe a different shadowing approach. Should these pixels actually be li…
