Chapter 7: Enhancing Models with Materials

Overview

The materials feature of VIZ lets you simulate surface color, texture, transparency, and even reflectance and roughness or bumpiness. The Material Editor in VIZ lets you create and modify materials that you can then apply to objects to achieve a realistic effect.

This chapter will introduce you to the Material Editor and how to use, design, and edit materials. You'll see how materials can be used to add color and realism to your models.
