Renderbump (console command)

Description

This command renders a normal map using both a high polygon and a low polygon model. The resulting image is intended for use on the low polygon model.

Usage

At the console type…

renderbump [model]

Parameters

  • [model] - The low polygon model to be used in game.

Notes

This command gathers all of it’s parameters from the material shader referenced by the low poly model.

Specifically, it looks at the renderbump global keyword in the material shader.

Failure to provide the engine with enough free memory to work with can result in a cant malloc x megs error.

It’s recommended that you free up as much system memory (RAM) as possible before issuing this command by closing unnecessary programs and that you ensure your pagefile (virtual memory) is set to allocate at least as much hard drive space as your system memory if not one and a half times that amount.
