Is it possible to >switch from one to another (for >example using creaseAngle or >normalPerVertex) ? The shading used in the cortona VRML client depends only on the underlying 3d system in use. However, the need for quick 3d doesnt live much space for anything else than plain phong shading, at least with the current hardware 3d implementations. If you use OpenGL the shading model is the one used by OpenGL if you switch to DirectX so does the shading model, but in general it will remain the same. Just because it says so in the book or the help files, doesnt mean that it works OR that it is 100% true.   [reply] [back to forum] [new message] [all forums] Shading model / julien@gti.ssr.upm.es / 21.03.03 10:37      Re: Shading model / thanOS / 6.07.03 05:06 Messages in thread: 2 [reply] [back to forum] [new message] [all forums]
