Hey guys, I'm working on applying a normal map + reflection shader to a model in my game. I used the blinn_bump_reflect.fx file included in the sample FX Composer projects. In FX Composer, the model looks perfect and beautiful, however, when I load it into DarkGDK, the UV data get's all screwed up.

This is the code for the shader:



In DarkGDK, I simply load the 3d model and the effect, and apply the effect to the model with the use effect's textures flag enabled.

The effect seems to 'work', it's just the UV data is lost or skewed.

Help is greatly appreciated

There are other normal map shaders in the forum, that are more suitable for DGDK/DBPro.
Besides the model usually needs to be textured with the normal map itself at some texture stage, so take care that all the textures in the above shader are available.

Thanks, it turns out the problem was that the shader was flipping the normal map on the x axis, I flipped the UV maps and it works just fine ^^.
