Types of Layers: Diffuse Layer

In general, this is the first layer created, the one giving the basic color. For a standard material, the parameters are given under the diffuse tab. The same semi-transparency options as those for the standard materials apply.

In fact, there are only two differences: the illumination parameter has disappeared (an illumination layer must now be created) and the diffuse grain is incorporated directly.

The diffuse layer parameters operate in the same way as those of the diffuse tab for the standard material.

Mixing the diffuse layer is standard: if the diffuse layer uses a see-through image, the layer underneath is shown in proportion through it.

Diffuse layers can accept a video texture as a Color Map.
