DESCRIPTION
===========
``dxPtexViewer`` is a stand-alone application that showcases advanced HDR shading
with color, displacement, occlusion and specular ptex maps. Multiple controls
are available to experiment with the algorithms.

OPTIONS
=======
See the description of the
`common comand line options <code_examples.html#common-command-line-options>`__
for the subset of common options supported here.
**-y**
Swap Z-up geometry to Y-UP.
**-e** *environment map*
A low dynamic range spherical environment map used as a background. Ideally,
a color-normalized version of the HDR light probe.
**-d** *HDR diffuse map*
An HDR file containing a diffuse environment map (typically they are low
resolution blurry hemispherical convolutions of the environment light probe).
**-s** *environment map*
An HDR file containing a specular environment map.
**--disp** *displacement scale*
A scalar multiplier for the shader displacement values.
*ptex color file*
A ptex file containing RGB channels read as material albedo color.
*ptex displacement file*
A single-channel ptex file (preferrably float precision) containing the
displacement values.
*ptex occlusion file*
A single-channel ptex file (preferrably 8 bits precision) containing a
pre-computed ambient occlusion signal.
*ptex specular file*
A single-channel ptex file (preferrably 8 bits precision) applied to modulate
the specular reflectance of the material
*objfile(s)*
A sequence of obj files used as an animation loop (the topology has to match
the data contained in all the ptex files !)
