Basic materials

Basic material properties define how a surface looks and reacts to light. These properties control essential aspects like color, reflectivity, transparency, and surface details. Each property can be manually adjusted or assigned a texture to create more complex and realistic materials.

Property	Description
Color	Determines the base color of a material
Roughness	Controls how glossy or rough a surface appears
Metalness	Defines whether a material behaves like a metal or a non-metal
Opacity	Adjusts the transparency of a material
Emission	Makes a material emit light, allowing it to glow regardless of the scene’s lighting
Normal map	Simulates surface details by affecting how light interacts with the material without changing its actual geometry
