Subscribe and find your way to the Hall of Justice to explore new possibilities for tileset creation. This is an in-development area that the team has been using to experiment with new rendering functionality.

When you enter the the Hall of Justice, equip your torch and see how the area looks with dynamic light.

The new tiles take advantage of a new normal mapped and specular mapped render path that will be available for new NWN content. This functionality calculates dynamic lighting per-pixel, rather than per-vertex, and uses normal mapping to modulate the effect of each light. In addition to dynamic lighting, we use the normal map in conjunction with any existing static lighting by using the average direction total static lighting contribution, which allows us to approximate the normal mapping component of static lighting.

To enable the new functionality, the content must specify normal and texture maps in the model file (in the texture1 and texture2 fields respectively), as well as specify a render hint, which tells the engine what render path to take. The following shows an example of how this would be done:
