Wooden material

A multiplier for the ambient contribution to the material. The ambient lighting model only looks at the ambient lights in the scene. If there are no ambient lights, this slider will have no affect.

A multiplier for the diffuse contribution to the material.

This is the color for the wood grain. The displacement determines where

this color is mixed with the Base Color.

If this box is not checked, the Base Color is ignored and white is substituted. Defaults to on.

This is the base color for the material. In this material, the displacement value is imported into the surface shader using dimport. This value drives the spline which selects the Base Color. This color is used as the initial color in the spline. When the displacement value is 0, this is the color returned. Defaults to white.

If this box is checked and the point color, (Cd), is defined, then Cd is multiplied with the Base Color. Defaults to on.

The opacity color for this material.

If set, the Alpha attributes will be multiplied into the final Opacity. If no Alpha Attribute exists, Opacity is unaffected.

If this box is checked the Base Color is multiplied by the specified texture map. Defaults to off. If Use Base Color, Use Point Color and Use Color Map are all off, the surface color will be white.

This the name of the texture file. The icon to the right opens a file browser.

Determines what the texture looks like when the texture coordinates are larger or less than 0 to 1. The options are:

• Repeat means the texture will repeat (tile).

• Streak means the texture color at the edges is clamped and streaks outside the map.

• Decal sets the color outside the texture map to the Border Color.

See texture for more information.

Type of anti-aliasing filter used. See texture for more information.

Filter Width is the number of pixels, in both u and v directions, to use in filtering. See texture for more information.

The color used outside the map if Decal Wrap is selected. See texture for more information.

A multiplier for the specular contribution to the material.

The specular highlight color, defaults to white.

This value controls the size or spread of the specular highlight. If Anisotropic is selected, this value controls only the size in the U direction.

When Anisotropic is selected, this value controls the size in the V direction.

This value controls the sharpness of the edge of the specular highlight. It is used only if Glossy specular is selected

A selector for the specular function. Anisotropic is used to get an elliptical highlight. Glossy is typically used for highly reflective materials to get a sharp edges highlight. See specular for more information.

Controls the overall depth of the veins.

This parameter controls the depth and direction of the displacement. If Min is greater than Max the veins will displace out beyond the base surface. The depth is controlled by the Overall Scale value, above.

This parameter controls the depth and direction of the displacement. If Max is less than Min the veins will displace out beyond the base surface. The depth is controlled by the Overall Scale value, above.

Usually tying this value to the displacement Overall Scale should work well. However making the displacement bounds as small as possible, without causing "rips" in the render, can lower render times. See render properties for more information.

The space in which you specify displacement bounds. The default, "Bounds specified in object space" is the recommended value.

• object Displacements occur in object space.

• camera Displacements occur in camera space.

• world Displacements currently an alias for camera.

When running displacement shaders, whether the VEX variable P is actually moved (true displacement) or whether bump mapping will be performed.
