hey guys, i'm writing a research paper for my animation class as extra credit and the topic is "the application of normal mapping to next gen games (specifically halo 3 and gears of war)" and i don't know that much about normal mapping. every website i looked at is either crazy programming theory or a tutorial, both of which i don't need. i can't find anything i can cite that would prove useful, if you guys can point me in the right direction that would be awesome. thanks.
