Materials

Materials control how geometry appears when rendered by a renderTOP.

Material Types

constantMAT — flat color, no lighting. Simplest, cheapest. Good for debug, UI, flat graphics
phongMAT — classic diffuse+specular lighting. Maps for diffuse, specular, normal, bump, emit
pbrMAT — physically based rendering. Metallic/roughness workflow, environment maps. Requires environmentlightCOMP with map TOP (see PBR Setup below)
pointspriteMAT — renders points as camera-facing quads with configurable size. Essential for particle rendering
glslMAT — custom GLSL vertex/pixel shaders. Full control. Load td-glsl-shaders skill for shader code
lineMAT — renders line primitives (proximityPOP/linePOP graphs, edges). Per-line color, pixel or world width
wirePOP — wireframe rendering via material wireframe toggle
