Parallax not working. I know I am wrong

[mawa]

Hi,
Well, it works. Sort of
Looks to me like your normal texture is ‘abnormal’
Jokes apart I believe it really works but the values are incorrect to make a proper height for parallax occlusion.

Babylon.js Playground

May be a quick a look at this topic:

DynamicTexture and parallax occlusion

Is there a playground example showing a DynamicTexture being used w/ parallax occlusion? I’m trying to do some procgen stuff, but am struggling.

Normals are in rgb and heights in a.

0x809fff=rgb(128,159, 255)=(0.502, 0.623, 1)=nt after we divide by 255. To get the true normal, the shader code is doing n=nt*2 - 1 and normalize the result.

For the alpha channel, 0xff is the highest height and 0x00 the lowest.
