This tutorial will cover terrain normal mapping in DirectX 11 using HLSL and C++.
One of the ways to add a degree of realism to height map generated terrain is to use normal mapping.
Normal mapping allows us to light the terrain per pixel instead of per triangle.
We get the per pixel lighting information from normal maps.
Each pixel in the normal map contains the information needed to calculate the unique lighting normal for that pixel.
To perform normal mapping calculations the tangent and binormal for each triangle on the terrain also needs to be calculated, we will go over the math to do that.
And finally we will need a normal map for the dirt texture that we have been using.
For this tutorial we will use the following diffuse and normal texture:
Now when we review our current lighting for the terrain we have shared normals giving a smooth transition of light over each triangle which looks like the following:
However if we apply a normal map to each of those triangles we can achieve highly detailed lighting that simulates detailed geometry on each triangle:
And when we reapply our diffuse texture and color map we have the appearance of a rough, detailed surface (whereas before we had completely smooth surfaces):

The VertexType and ModelType structures have been updated to include a tangent and binormal vector.
struct VertexType
{
XMFLOAT3 position;
XMFLOAT2 texture;
XMFLOAT3 normal;
XMFLOAT3 tangent;
XMFLOAT3 binormal;
XMFLOAT3 color;

float nx, ny, nz;
float tx, ty, tz;
float bx, by, bz;

We have added a new structure called TempVertexType to assist in calculating the tangent and binormal vectors.

The terrain vertex shader has been modified to include the tangent and binormal in each of the input structures.
And just like the normal we calculate the tangent and binormal against the world matrix and normalize them so they are prepared for use in the pixel shader.

Summary
With normal mapping we can now render highly detailed terrain surfaces.
Note this is a high frequency effect so you need to look closely at surfaces to see it.
And the effect disappears quickly into the distance because of the high frequency nature of the effect.
Most terrain engines only render the normal map effect for a small distance using the depth buffer to determine when the extra calculations are not needed.
To Do Exercises
1. Recompile the code in 64 bit mode and navigate around the terrain to exam the normal map effect.
2. Use your own texture and normal map. You can use the Nvidia Photoshop plugin to generate your own normal maps from diffuse textures.
3. Change the pixel shader to output only the lighting result without the texture to see the normal map effect clearly on the terrain.
