Intel Texture Works Plugin for Photoshop - SNORM Support

用於Photoshop的英特爾®Texture Works插件 -  SNORM支持

支持BC5的預編譯二進制文件簽署了Fallout 76使用的法線貼圖

描述：

輻射76從使用BC5無符號法線（UNORM）變爲先前的遊戲，變爲簽名法線（SNORM）。這提供了一些技術優勢，但是當涉及免費提供的導出簽名BC5法線的工具時，它也提出了挑戰。沒有。謝天謝地，al2950在英特爾紋理工程插件上GitHub爲我們完成了艱苦的工作並編寫了一個包含BC5 SNORM支持的拉取請求。不幸的是，英特爾似乎已停止開發他們的插件，因此公關尚未合併。因此，我已經完成了（通常是簡短的）建立和分發插件版本的工作，其中包含al2950的BC5 SNORM支持。這是一種冗長的說法，你現在可以從Photoshop中導出紋理，在Fallout 76中正確渲染。

說明：

按照英特爾自述文件的指示下載並安裝

導出法線時，BC5壓縮分爲BC5_U（無符號）和BC5_S（帶符號），導出爲輻射76時使用BC5_S

版本：

提供兩個版本，第一個使用英特爾指導的CS6 SDK構建。但是，由於GitHub repo報告中的用戶報告了以後的CC版本的Photoshop，我已經使用CC 2018 SDK構建了第二個版本。您的里程數可能會有所不同，但我建議您從CS6版本開始，如果遇到問題並使用更高版本的CC，請切換到CC 2018版本。

要求：

Windows 7（32/64）或更高版本

Photoshop CS6或更高版本

積分：

英特爾GameDevTech爲原始插件

al2950用於編寫具有SNORM支持的PR

Mikado讓我建立它併爲我測試它

使用的工具：

Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate

Visual Studio 2017企業版

英特爾SPMD程序編譯器

適用於Windows的Adobe Photoshop CS6 SDK

適用於Windows的Adobe Photoshop CC 2018 SDK

建立自己：

要自己構建這個插件，請按照GitHub頁面上的說明，替換您選擇的SDK（過去CS6應該做的任何事情），在本地合併拉取請求並在Visual Studio 2012或更高版本中構建。您還需要從下面的鏈接獲取英特爾ISPC編譯器的副本，將其放在“.. \ 3rdParty \ Intel \ Tools”中，因爲它不包含在任何原因中。

Intel® Texture Works Plugin for Photoshop - SNORM Support

Pre-compiled binaries with support for BC5 signed normal maps as used by Fallout 76

Description:

Fallout 76 changes from using BC5 unsigned normals (UNORM) as previous games did, to signed normals (SNORM). This provides some technical advantages, however it also presents a challenge when it comes to freely available tools to export signed BC5 normals. There aren't any. Thankfully al2950 over at the Intel Texture Works plugin GitHub has done the hard work for us and written a pull request which includes BC5 SNORM support. Unfortunately Intel appears to have stopped developing their plugin so the PR hasn't been merged. So, I've done the (admittedly short) legwork of building and distributing a version of the plugin with al2950's BC5 SNORM support. Which is a long-winded way of saying that you can now export textures from Photoshop that will render correctly in Fallout 76.

Instructions:

Download and install as directed by Intel's readme

When exporting normals, BC5 compression is split into BC5_U (unsigned) and BC5_S (signed), use BC5_S when exporting for Fallout 76

Versions:

Two versions are offered, the 1st built with the CS6 SDK as directed by Intel. However as users on the the GitHub repo report issues with later CC versions of Photoshop, I have built a 2nd version with the CC 2018 SDK. You mileage may vary with either, though I'd recommend starting with the CS6 version and switching to the CC 2018 version if you experience issues and are using a later version of CC.

Requirements:

Windows 7 (32/64) or higher

Photoshop CS6 or higher

Credits:

Intel GameDevTech for the original plugin

al2950 for writing the PR with SNORM support

Mikado for getting me to build it and testing it for me

Tools Used:

Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate

Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise

Intel SPMD Program Compiler

Adobe Photoshop CS6 SDK for Windows

Adobe Photoshop CC 2018 SDK for Windows

Building this Yourself:

To build this plugin yourself follow the instructions on the GitHub page, substituting the SDK of your choice (any past CS6 should do), merge the pull request locally and build in Visual Studio 2012 or higher. You'll also need to get a copy of Intel's ISPC Compiler from the link below too, placing it in "..\3rdParty\Intel\Tools" as it's not included for whatever reason.
