Glitched Shaders on Mac

[ddutchie]

This tool does not seem to work correctly on a mac. The height map is generated correctly and blur works, however after that all textures are glitched.

Is there a reason you are using shaders and not scripts to convert your initial input.

I think I have a mac here I can test with. If not, what do the glitched textures look like? I'm using shaders because it is much faster than processing the textures on the CPU.

I made a change to one of the shaders(f474197), see if that fixes it. It's working now on my Mac here.

Latest branch does not generate Normals correctly on my mac. (have not tested on windows)

i had to un-comment the top commented line in the (normal) shader for it to work.
I am just finishing up my own project and will then look at yours in depth. I have been using scripts and readpixels to generate my various channels. I will be using your project to transition into a shader based approach.

Thanks again for this.

You're referring to this line?

return float4((up - down).xxx, 1);

If you return that, you're only comparing the vertical difference and not horizontal. What does the output look like with my current version?

It looks like the Metallic Map

sorry i was recalling from my head, this is correct for mac

return float4(normal.x, normal.y, normal.z, 1);

[ddutchie]

normal is still strange. will report back

[ddutchie]

Normal seem to generate correctly, but in editor the error is that the texture is not assigned as normal map.
