How to Use Blender GLSL Materials

[linkanparkfan]

this is kind of a poor example of what glsl materials can do because if you go more in depth you can make fake shadows making it look 3d and realistic no offense but great tut though

[ALbishop2123]

[Cobra11Star]

Is there any other way to make reflections and water and stuff in the game engine?

Dude, worst.....tutorial....ever Sorry man!

[BlenderPenguin]

how is this different from just using the UV image editor. It seems that u get the same result in a more complicated way

[Elec08215]

The GLSL mats act more like a renderer than the standard UV image editor.

[BlenderPenguin]

how? and why is that better?

[TheMegaGlitch]

@BlenderPenguin GLSL uses "Real-Time" textures and such, glsl is also usually lag laggy and is bet quality. Plus you get the benifit of many real time features like real-time lighting, which is very useful.

[rokstar234]

@BlenderPenguin OK.... with GLSL you can make shadows and even water relfections..... UV images dont cast anything but a image(no shadow or reflection) you can easily just use both... UVs are great back grounds makers

and GLSL in the fore ground for better texture. even high quality games like ff13 use UVs as back grounds.... just look for a flat open part and study the the background. youl notice its flat looking... like a UV. the only problem is that some UVs dont Show when GLSL is activated

whi i cant see "use gsls ..." when pressing on game

[Fuogor]

What about normal maps? How would I go about doing that?

[bostonredsox9940]

cant u just load a normal image?

Like if i wanted to make a stone wall, cant i just use a normal image

[Elec08215]

Yeah, but GLSL works better doing some things.

[MrVecheater]

when i do this on 2:58 and i start the GE the plane disappears

[MrVecheater]

pls help! its dont working! everything gets invisible

[yesturtle]

try looking at the plane from the other side

[MrVecheater]

i already did but i asked someone else and he said my grafics card is too bad for it :(

[BlenderNut]

Thanks, it helped

[Elec08215]

Open the UV image editor, do into edit mode on the plane, select all the verticies and hit U and then select unwrap.

[audioslaverockband]

u totally lost me when u did the unwrap thing
