BasicMaterial - RMIT Visual Effects

3-4 minutes

BasicMaterial offers control over several standard texture properties:

emission: The amount of light that an object emits (not really useful, unless you
wish to emulate glowing globes).

diffuse: The color of the object.

specular: The amount of specularity of the object (very similar in principle to

shininess).

In the snippet below, these properties are controlled by three different maps.

See also the page Simple 3D Enviroment with Materials for a further explanation of
this node.

The diffuse and specular properties of a sphere applied through a BasicMaterial

and an ApplyMaterial node.
