BaseMaterial3D

Inherits: Material < Resource < RefCounted < Object

Inherited By: ORMMaterial3D, StandardMaterial3D

Abstract base class for defining the 3D rendering properties of meshes.

Description

This class serves as a default material with a wide variety of rendering features and properties without the need to write shader code. See the tutorial below for details.
