Hello dear everybody,
this is the third episode of the Phong Lighting Shader series, in which we implement the specular light after a short recap.
In the end we also see how to automatically move the light around in the scene.
Hope you find it useful, and for every question I'm here.
Enjoy!
[EDIT] Something happening between the version of Max in the tutorial and Max 8.5.5 broke this shader and made Max crash.
This was the line I changed to avoid Max crashing:
mat3 normalMatrix = transpose(inverse(mat3x3(modelViewMatrix)));
Now the normal matrix is simply passed by Max to the shader:
<param name="normalMatrix" type="mat3" state="NORMAL_MATRIX" />
