I have a sphere with per-vertex normals and I'm trying to derive the texture coordinates for the object using the algorithm:
U = Asin(Norm.X) / PI + 0.5
V = Asin(Norm.Y) / PI + 0.5
With a polka dot texture, I get:
Here's the same object without the texture applied:
The issue I'm particuarly looking at (I know there's a few) is the misalignment of the textures.
I am inclined to believe the issue resides in my use of those algorithms, as the specular highlighting (which doesn't utilise any textures but does rely on the normals being correct) appears to have no artifacts.
Any ideas?
