Adding Bump and Normal maps together

Post by Racleborg »

Hi

What is the correct way to add a Bump and a Normal map together?

Is the method in the attached image correct?

Thank you

Yes. The actual math is more complicated, but LuxCore does that in the background for you (the add texture contains the necessary code and it is used if the output is a bump map).
