Hi, I need to learn how to make a cloth shader like these ones:

(Thirdeye's and ppls')

I've been trying all day long and I can't get the bump right... Looks like a checkerboard or something gone horribly wrong. Please help me obi-wan, err...

Hm Malcolm,

Could you post some of your results? Might make it easier to try putting you on the right track. In any case, my guess is ThirdEye used a bitmap. Although it certainly can be done with procedurals... with a lot of tweaking (we are talking about the tablecloth, aren't we?).

Cheers,
BaRa
