Watch this tutorial series it could help.

Yes, the main reason is lights with shadows.

Thumb upo for this too

THere’s also another method. Blend file in attachement.

Can you share the example?

Why this “complicated” procedure? And what do we do when we want to animate these objects. Parent the source-mesh with custom normals to the export-mesh to not break the modifier? Thats not very practical…

Unfortunally, animation of modifiers not supported and seems no change for this in near future.

Is there a way to make custom normals work natively on export? Those are very common in game engines so it would be nice if you could use them “natively” in verge3D.

What do you mean natevely, it wont work in Blender too if you do not activate Auto Smooth on model too. All you need is to activate Smooth Model on model. If you use Modifier to modify a mesh you need to manually apply it before export and it will work exactly as in BLender if you won’t apply it manually you need to check Bake Midifier so the enigne will do it for you. Nothing to add here.

You can use common css animation or use Animation Param puzzle with Visibility of the object from 0% to 100% and inverse.

You need to connect bumpnode to a texture with lines or better create a normal map and increase ruoughness.
