- | ====== Bent Normal Maps ====== | ||
- | The Bent Normal maps within Knald are generated from high to low polygonal meshes via [[the_baker_knald_1.2|The Baker]]. While they do contain directional data similar to that of normal maps, they are actually more similar to Ambient Occlusion maps as they include a form of occlusion data via the bent normal (i.e. the occlusion value of the mean ray/weighted average that does not intersect with the high poly mesh after hemisphere sampling) which represents the weighted average of all unoccluded directions. | ||
