- “From Node”. Maxwell will take the colour from the “Node” panel's “Color” parameter.
- “From File” lets you load an external MXM material file.
- Choose one of the predefined and ready-to-use materials.
@ Material File
This field is only available when “Material” is set to “From File”. With a click into the empty field you can load any valid MXM file.
@ Material shininess
This parameter is only available with “Material” set to “From Node”. Increasing this parameter creates stronger specular reflections and highlights. with very high settings you will get a mirror-like look and the original colour vanishes. Accepted values range from 0 to 100.
@ Material roughness
This parameter is only available with “Material” set to “From Node”. Higher settings will blur the specular highlights. Please avoid exaggerated settings. Accepted values range from 0 to 100.
Recalculate normals
When active the node's normals will be recalculated by Maxwell Render and this (normally) leads to better results in conjunction with objects and MultiBodies.
