I'm writing a physically based shader using glsl es in three.js. For the addition of specular global illumination I use a cubemap dds texture with mipmap chain inside (precalculate with CubeMapGen as it's explained here). I need to access this texture in fragment shader and I would like to select manually the index of mipmap. The correct function for doing this is
vec4 textureCubeLod(samplerCube sampler, vec3 coord, float lod)
but it's available only in vertex shader. In my fragment shader I'm using the similar function
vec4 textureCube(samplerCube sampler, vec3 coord, float bias)
but it doesn't work well, because the bias parameter is just added to the automatically calculated level of detail. So, when I zoom in or zoom out on the scene the LOD of mipmap change, but for my shader it must be the same (it must depends only on the rough parameter, as explained in the link above).
I would like to select manually the level of mipmap in fragment shader only depends on the roughness of the material (for example using the formula mipMapIndex = roughness*numMipMap), so it must be costant with the distance and no automatically changed when zooming. How can I solve this?
It wont work with webGL atm, because there is no support for this feature. You can experiment with textureLOD extensions though with recent builds of chrome canary, but it still needs some tweaking. Go about flags and look for this:
