in need of a shader wizard

to difficult for me to really understand the normal blending. i simply messed around with an example on shadertoy.
strange thing is that it works correctly on specific axises and others dont.

DJM

did some tests, my normal blend code is correct i think, somehow the triplanar sampling gets messed up

Megalomaniak

DJM triplanar_pos *= vec3(1.0,-1.0, 1.0);

Whats the purpose of inverting that one scalar component?

DJM

Megalomaniak i have no idea, i allready tried setting that to 1. i started with the shader spacecloud wrote.

DJM

actually deleting this line made the shader work
triplanar_pos *= vec3(1.0,-1.0, 1.0);
dont know why, but it works fine now.

I was honestly going by gut feeling there, so if it works now, great. But there could still be a chance of some nasty surprise I suppose, since I was just giving a quick glance over the code, it's not as if I made a quick test model and brought it into godot to test the actual shader out on it.

DJM

i was wrong, again, bah....
ive managed to get the normal lighting working correctly but the normals are now way too saturated
ive made a zip of my terrain and current state of the shader.
feel free to have a look.

also, why is it when u zip a godot project its larger than the actual files that are in the project folder?

Megalomaniak

Because there's likely already some compression involved. I'll take a look at the scene when I have a bit more free time, hopefully some time tomorrow.
