A material's albedo (left) compared to its bump map.
The above material in-game.

Template:Shaderparam It specifies a texture that will provide three-dimensional lighting information for a material. The texture is a bump map, but the process it is used for is called normal mapping. The two terms are often used interchangeably, however.

Warning.pngWarning:$bumpmap will disable prop_static's per-vertex lighting in every Source game but Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. Not enough data is stored in the vertices for normal mapping, so the engine has no choice but to fall back.
Note.pngNote:
  • In the Water shader, $bumpmap is for a DX8 du/dv map. Use $normalmap instead.
  • Bump maps cannot be used on decal textures, except in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.

Basic syntax

LightmappedGeneric
{
	$basetexture	brick/brickwall021a
	$surfaceprop	brick
	$bumpmap		brick/brickwall021a_normal
}

Additional parameters

$bumptransform $bumpframe $nodiffusebumplighting [[$ssbump|$ssbump]] $forcebump $bump_force_on $addbumpmaps $bumpmap2 $bumpframe2 $bumptransform2 $bumpmask $bumpdetailscale1

Console commands

mat_fastnobump <booleanRedirectInput/boolean>
Quickly enables/disabled normal mapping.
mat_normalmaps <booleanRedirectInput/boolean>
Displays the bump map texture of all materials that have one in place of their albedo.
(Yes, these two commands have bump and normal the wrong way around!)
mat_bumpmap <booleanRedirectInput/boolean>
Enable or disable normal mapping. Default 1.
