Remarks

Calculates MikkTSpace Tangents for a given set of vertex data with normals provided

Parameters

Parameter	Description
InVertices	Vertices that make up the mesh
InIndices	Indices for the Vertex array
InUVs	Texture coordinates (per-index based)
InNormals	Normals used for the tangent calculation (must be normalized)
bIgnoreDegenerateTriangles	Flag for MikkTSpace to skip degenerate triangles fix-up path
OutTangentX	Array to hold calculated Tangents
OutTangentY	Array to hold calculated Bitangents
