TexturePack

Dress a part beyond its colour: texture, bumps, shine, metal, glow, glass and see-through, shared by every part that points at the same pack.

Each channel, Texture, Normal, Roughness, Metalness, Emission, Transparency, Transmission and IOR, is an image or a typed value. Images follow a MeshPart's UVs; plain Parts use the values, and a Material tiles over both. The first edit of a part's Surface rows in Properties gives it its own pack; part.TexturePack = pack shares one. Wire a picture or a surface graph into a channel in the Nodes window; a surface graph looks the same in Solid and Rendered.

Properties

Surface

Name	Type	Default	Description
EmissionMap	`ImageContent`	0 0 to 1000	Emission strength, times the surface colour: an image or a value.
IORMap	`ImageContent`	1.45 1 to 3	The IOR channel: a typed value, or an image whose red 0 to 1 covers IOR 1 to 3.
Material	`Material`		A Material applied to the parts that use this pack.
MetalnessMap	`ImageContent`	0 0 to 1	The Metalness channel: a typed number, or an image read through its red channel where there are mesh UVs.
NormalMap	`ImageContent`	0.5, 0.5, 1	The surface normal channel: an image or a typed value, where 0.5, 0.5, 1 is flat.
RoughnessMap	`ImageContent`	0.5 0 to 1	The roughness image, read from its red channel along a MeshPart's UVs; RoughnessValue is used where there is none.
Texture	`ImageContent`	1, 1, 1	An image, or a typed colour that acts exactly like a flat image of that colour.
TransmissionMap	`ImageContent`	0 0 to 1	The Transmission channel: a typed number, or an image read through its red channel where there are mesh UVs.
TransparencyMap	`ImageContent`	0 0 to 1	Makes the part see-through: a typed value, or an image that is see-through where it is white.

Scripts


EmissionValue	`number`	scripts only	The typed emission strength, times the surface colour, used where there is no Emission image.
IORValue	`number`	scripts only	The typed IOR, used where there is no IOR image and always on plain Parts.
MetalnessValue	`number`	scripts only	The typed metalness, used where there is no Metalness image and always on plain Parts.
NormalValue	`Vector3`	scripts only	The typed normal: it tilts MeshParts through their tangents and does nothing on plain Parts.
RoughnessValue	`number`	scripts only	The roughness used where there is no image, and on plain Parts.
TextureValue	`Color3`	scripts only	The typed colour used where there is no Texture image; it acts like a flat image of that colour.
TransmissionValue	`number`	scripts only	The typed transmission, used where there is no Transmission image and always on plain Parts.
TransparencyValue	`number`	scripts only	The pack's typed transparency; a part's old Transparency property forwards to it.
