Animation: Material Types and Maps Material Types
- There are 10 Material Types:
- Standard- Commonly used materials
- Blend- Blends two separate materials
- Composite- Can combine materials by adding, subtracting or multiplying colours together
- Double Sided- The rendered model has material on both sides of its surface
- Matte/Shadow- When assigned to an object it renders it invisible in a scene. Useful for casting a shadow of an object without seeing the object e.g. Shadow of a plane flying overhead.
- Morpher Material- Used to morph from one material to another
- Multi/Sub-Object- Allows you to assign multiple materials to a single object
