Use OpenGL normal maps. DX will look inverted.

Yes, this looks really impressive and it works. I suppose having an Emissive Layer with glow effects would do something similar behind the scenes, sort of automatically. But for now, I think your approach will be very useful for some cool experiences!

Same here. I have so much games that could use this and it would make them look way nicer then it does already

If u add it in ur games pls add a option to disable it and also disable it by default.

I’ll see if that’s possible, it might disable with low graphics though so

Also what do you mean disable it by default?.. I’m using this feature on all my games

That will be still be a issue. It will still be downloading the textures that is why loading will take forever for low end PC.

When someone join the game first time it is disabled u can tell him that if he want it he could enable it.

Honestly that kinda doesn’t matter to me not gonna lie but if it’s possible and i found out i will but if there’s no way then i’m gonna use custom materials even if it takes along time to load in

Is there a download for that Metal texture? It looks so good

What metal material? Where do you see metal at

The top of the post it shows the comparison. Without and with. The 3 cubes stacked

You can go to websites like https://freepbr.com/ and https://ambientcg.com/

I know but I want the one in the picture. I’ve looked at both of those websites

Pretty sure it’s a free pbr material on the roblox tool box, not sure though

I am not so sure, but there seem to be some issues with rendering.

The issue




As you can see the weird lighting issue happens whenever I apply custom materials onto cylinders.


Doesn’t happen with default materials.

Here are the textures i used:




Edit: This seems to be an issue with the cylinders itself, rather than a rendering issue.
Pretty sure that this topic is related with the issue :

Also, i’ve found a Cylinder mesh that could be an alternative for Roblox’s default cylinders, for anyone having the same issue. Mesh Id : rbxassetid://455871336
