NormalBufferPlugin

Example — Source Code — API Reference

Normal Buffer Plugin adds a pre-render pass to the render manager and renders a normal buffer to a target. The render target can be accessed by other plugins throughout the rendering pipeline to create effects like SSAO, SSR, etc.

NOTE

Use GBufferPlugin if using both DepthBufferPlugin and NormalBufferPlugin to render both depth and normal buffers in a single pass.

import {ThreeViewer, NormalBufferPlugin} from 'threepipe'

const viewer = new ThreeViewer({...})

const normalPlugin = viewer.addPluginSync(new NormalBufferPlugin())

const normalTarget = normalPlugin.target;

// Use the normal target by accessing `normalTarget.texture`.
