Bases: Material

Create a material for physically based rendering as specified by GLTF 2.0: https://git.io/fhkPZ

Parameters with Texture in them must be PIL.Image objects

property alphaCutoff

Specifies the cutoff threshold when in MASK alpha mode. If the alpha value is greater than or equal to this value then it is rendered as fully opaque, otherwise, it is rendered as fully transparent. A value greater than 1.0 will render the entire material as fully transparent. This value MUST be ignored for other alpha modes. When alphaMode is not defined, this value MUST NOT be defined.

Returns: alphaCutoff – Value of cutoff.
Return type: float

property alphaMode

The material alpha rendering mode enumeration specifying the interpretation of the alpha value of the base color.

Returns: alphaMode – One of ‘OPAQUE’, ‘MASK’, ‘BLEND’
Return type: str

property baseColorFactor

copy()

property doubleSided

Specifies whether the material is double sided.

Returns: doubleSided – Specifies whether the material is double sided.
Return type: bool

property emissiveFactor

The factors for the emissive color of the material. This value defines linear multipliers for the sampled texels of the emissive texture.

Returns: emissiveFactor – Ech element in the array MUST be greater than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 1.
Return type: (3,) float

property main_color

The “average” color of this material.

Returns: color – Average color of this material.
Return type: (4,) uint8

property metallicFactor

Returns: metallicFactor – How metally is the material
Return type: float

property roughnessFactor

The factor for the roughness of the material. This value defines a linear multiplier for the sampled roughness values of the metallic-roughness texture.

Returns: roughnessFactor – Roughness of material.
