Phong lighting is a great and very efficient approximation of lighting, but its specular reflections break down in certain conditions, specifically when the shininess property is low resulting in a large rough specular area. By default, they are no attenuation attenuation factor is 1 so you have to defines your own attenuation.

Run the following commands from the directory containing the source. Implementing an advanced lightning model would be compatible with standard opengl statements. This week we add perpixel specular lighting to the game, allowing for shiny looking materials. But for correct lighting diffuse and specular you will also need to specify a normals for each vertex. The combined result then acts as the indirect or ambient specular light. Reflection off of smooth surfaces such as mirrors or a calm body of water leads to a type of reflection known as specular reflection. Shiny surfaces reflect almost all incident light and therefore have bright specular highlights or hot spots. One more comment usually, specular light does not multiply the color of the object, but instead its added to the resulting color as the color of the light multiplied by your specular intensity. If we fix spin and change glulookat, the lighting will move together with object. Up until february, the graphics didnt mind, but after a certain driver update, it refused to render the object which i believe is the correct behaviour. In this tutorial well start to implement a directional light. Can it be about a library or anything i have to install, or could it be about my graphics driver. This tutorial completes the phong shading rendering code that we started in the last tutorial by adding specular highlights to the material. This of course limits the highlights for the entire scene.
Also, make sure your using fp30 float in your fragment shader. Opengl specular lighting is added to the ambient and diffuse lighting we just learned about. Turns out i was using the core opengl profile, which requires you to use vertex array objects, which i didnt. On another machine, which instead has an openglsupporting card, i always lost antialiasing. Glsl programmingglutspecular highlights wikibooks, open. The specular map allows us to treat the steel as shiny and the wood as not. Specular as with diffuse lighting, the light comes from a point souce. So, for white light, your specular highlight should be white, not green. Julien gouesse 20160201 if you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in.

It does not, however show up with other vendors amdnvidia opengl implementations. All that remained of the phong lighting model was some specular lighting, so lets get to it. The location of a highlight moves as you move your eye, while keeping the light source and the surface at the stationary positions.
