Normal maps red in OpenGL?
- by KaiserJohaan
I am using Assimp to import 3d models, and FreeImage to parse textures.
The problem I am having is that the normal maps are actually red rather than blue when I try to render them as normal diffuse textures.

When I open the images in a image-viewing program they do indeed show up as blue.
Heres when I create the texture;
OpenGLTexture::OpenGLTexture(const std::vector<uint8_t>& textureData, uint32_t textureWidth, uint32_t textureHeight, TextureType textureType, Logger& logger) : mLogger(logger), mTextureID(gNextTextureID++), mTextureType(textureType)
{
glGenTextures(1, &mTexture);
CHECK_GL_ERROR(mLogger);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, mTexture);
CHECK_GL_ERROR(mLogger);
glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGBA, textureWidth, textureHeight, 0, glTextureFormat, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, &textureData[0]);
CHECK_GL_ERROR(mLogger);
glGenerateMipmap(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
CHECK_GL_ERROR(mLogger);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0);
CHECK_GL_ERROR(mLogger);
}
Here is my fragment shader. You can see I just commented out the normal-map parsing and treated the normal map texture as the diffuse texture to display it and illustrate the problem. As for the rest of the code it interacts as expected with the diffuse textures so I dont see a obvious problem there.

Why is this? does normal-map textures need some sort of special treatment in opengl?
