 ====== Normal Maps ======
-The Normal maps within Knald are generated on the fly from the [[height_maps_knald|Height maps]] provided by [[the_integrator_knald|The Integrator]]. They are adjustable in real time in terms of intensity via the [[the_main_tab_knald#general|Bump Scale]] slider.
-You can also create Normal maps quickly and efficiently from photographs, via pre-rendered Height via Knald's [[color_to_normals_knald|Color To Normals]] functionality and our world class [[the_baker_knald|baker]].
-Please see the [[color_to_normals_knald|Color To Normals]] & [[the_baker_knald|The Baker]] pages for more information.

-===== The Normal Maps Group's Settings =====
-**Flip Green:** Here you can change the axis in the dropdown to match the Normal/Derivative maps for your engine or application as required. By default Knald is set to X+Y+Z+, so if you are using a normal or derivative map that differs from this configuration, you will need to change this setting. To change this setting check the Flip Green check box to save your choice.
-**View OS Normal:** Enables the viewing of the Object Space Normal map in the Normal tab rather than the default Tangent Space Normal map.
-**Bump Scale:** The global strength of the processed Normal and Derivative maps.

-Knald uses MikkTSpace by default
-bitangent on thfly is also more efficient on modern hw btw
+Please see the [[color_to_normals_knald|Color To Normals]] page for more information.
-sending more data from vertex to pixel shader is much more costly than just doing the minor calculation in the pixel shader
-which is what unreal uses
