04About this texture

Each row shows 15 cm of shingle, and the individual pieces vary between 10 and 30 cm in width, so the pattern never looks stamped. The lower edge of every shingle is raised in the height map, which gives the classic stepped silhouette in parallax shaders and a soft shadow line in the AO. The same material covers mountain huts, garden sheds, bird houses and fairy tale cottages, on roofs as well as on walls. The example scene puts it on a wall behind a bird feeder, a rain barrel and a garden gnome.

Questions and answers

Which way should the shingles point on a roof?

Keep the rows horizontal and the overlapping lower edges facing downhill, so V runs up the slope. Then rain would run off the shingles the way it does on a real roof.

How deep is the shingle relief?

The height map spans 12 mm. Use that value as displacement or parallax scale in metres and the steps between rows keep a realistic depth.
