Title: Reflective Map other than Spherical/Cylindrical?
Post by: 123savethewhales on June 20, 2010, 07:14:02 PM: Is it possible for RA2 to render explicit map channel?

Post by: Clickbeetle on June 21, 2010, 12:12:26 AM: It sounds familiar. I believe it's one of the things FB modded Dummy's compiler to be able to do, but I never used it because I don't know what it is.

What is it?

Pyramidal/SAT/None are Bitmap filtering, whereas spherical/cylindrical are reflective map type.

That's MATERIAL_SHADING I think. Though I don't know how to use anything other than Blinn for RA2.
