How do I get per pixel lighting in DX? Is there any function, or do I have to use pixel shaders? [Edited by - GavRobbs on August 10, 2007 6:52:35 PM]

Fixed function bump mapping (google "EMBM" iirc) existed in D3D6 and I know there was directional DP3 per-pixel lighting in D3D7 (maybe earlier).

There has never been a "Per Pixel Lighting = On" switch, but fixed-function is probably as close to that as you could hope to get.

These days it's all about pixel shaders - you'll find a million examples of this online and in books. You might still find some legacy FF-style examples, but I doubt they're up-to-date or easy to find.

Thanks a lot. Time to go learn pixel shaders...*sigh*
