ShaderNodeNormalMap(ShaderNode)

base classes — bpy_struct, Node, NodeInternal, ShaderNode

class bpy.types.ShaderNodeNormalMap(ShaderNode)

Generate a perturbed normal from an RGB normal map image. Typically used for faking highly detailed surfaces

convention

OpenGL or DirectX (default 'OPENGL')

  • OPENGL OpenGL – Normal map uses OpenGL convention, with Y axis in the green channel pointing up.

  • DIRECTX DirectX – Normal map uses DirectX convention, with Y axis in the green channel pointing down.

Type:

Literal[‘OPENGL’, ‘DIRECTX’]

space

Space of the input normal (default 'TANGENT')

  • TANGENT Tangent Space – Tangent space normal mapping.

  • OBJECT Object Space – Object space normal mapping.

  • WORLD World Space – World space normal mapping.

  • BLENDER_OBJECT Blender Object Space – Object space normal mapping, compatible with Blender render baking.

  • BLENDER_WORLD Blender World Space – World space normal mapping, compatible with Blender render baking.

Type:

Literal[‘TANGENT’, ‘OBJECT’, ‘WORLD’, ‘BLENDER_OBJECT’, ‘BLENDER_WORLD’]
