Not the usual normal, surface normal! Or normals.
Here, have a car! In that picture, it is using calculated surface normals because I wanted to test that. If the model has surface normals already, it can use them. Anyhow, the surface normals in the picture are transformed by the camera/world coordinates, and all I need to do to do actual lighting is a simple dot product and a few other things. After that, Phong (per-pixel) lighting is a few calculations away, and with that, bump-mapping just requires a normal map to apply. Also it loads Wavefront OBJ files now. Woot!—-I got promoted and hired permanently at my job at 55k salary, with a high probability (according to superiors) that I'll be moving up the ranks very quickly. Hurrah!Chronicle was a cool movie. Its feel was not at all what I'd expected, but somehow just as good as I'd hoped.Shutter Island was excellent. Leonardo is so serious all the time.More Adventure Time is always good.I watched Dr. Who Series 6 Pt 2, totally saw the series ending coming like 7 episodes ahead - still was awesome. Matt Smith is doing a very good job as the Doctor, although it is hard to beat David Tennant.I'm going to by an iPad 2 soon. Why 2 instead of 3? For testing reasons.Also, my friend/coworker wants to make a game with me and some artists. I haven't done game programming in months, so I think I'll take him up on his offer.That is all.

Chronicle, Adventure Time, and Doctor Who?
You sir, are watching the right things!Chronicle was kind of depressing and a lot more mature and darker than I expected.
But I agree, it was a really good movie.Adventure Time is okay lately, I wish they'd get straight to the point with the post-apocalyptic earth and whatnot and/or have episodes with a serious tone, instead of all these episodes that just seem like fillers. I'm looking at the episode where Tree Trunks was in love with the pig especially. There needs to be more episodes like Dad's Dungeon, where it kind of fleshes out the characters a bit, because its charm is kind of wearing off for me lately.And Shutter Island was a good movie, even though I watched it like a year ago and I don't remember most of what happened.Adventure Time isn't losing any "charm" for me.
I hope these opinions of yours are never voiced to a producer or you'll end up ruining the show.And since when did you all of the sudden care about Adventure Time, Juurian?
Well to me, adventure time is about silliness and random things that happen while also having a deeper back-story that doesn't really matter unless you actually care about it. (PS: I care about it)
@JID
I've been watching Adventure Time since the Pilot Aired (Okay, that's a stretch…)@BlogDavid Tennant was the Bees knees.I like Adventure Time for the silliness, but I wish they'd make the episodes more interesting, instead of constant randomness, it gets kind of annoying sometimes.
@Juurian It doesn't matter how long you've watched the show, because the last I've heard, you absolutely hated it.
