Twilight Material Priority Order
Posted: Sat Sep 12, 2009 4:35 pm
There are some "rules" regarding materials in Twilight
1. Any face with a "Front" material applied will always use that material
2. if not -- If that face is in a group or component, if that group or component has a material applied, it will use that material
3. finally -- if the face has a back material applied, that material will be used
If you aren't rendering the material you thought your were:
Maybe the geometry you can "see" is the back material. Since the back material is unassigned, it's showing the group / component material. However, maybe you have a front material assigned, but you can't see it. So twilight is rendering the front material, but SU is showing you the back.
