Diffuse Resize on AO with Normal and Specular

[Luther Weymann]

I have 1024 diffuse that gets laid over an AO. The 1024x1024 diffuse needs to be tighter, more defined on the AO, so it gets resized to 512x512 times four of those back into 1024.

The AO is applied to the prim normally at texture horizontal and vertical 1 and 1

Do you think I should resize the normal and specular the way I did the diffuse before applying them to the prim?

Or instead of resizing the normal and specular like I did the diffuse, maybe the following will work.

THE QUESTION. Do you think the normal and specular line up precisely with the diffuse if I set the texture x and y on the prim for the normal and specular to 2? And the horizontal and vertical offset to 0.5, which may be the same as the resizing of the 2x2 diffuse?

Yes, you can do it that way. I've done it several times with no problem whatsoever.
