Properties

	Name	Description
	AmbientOcclusionFactor	Float value that defines a factor that is multiplied with the ambient occlusion texture (when specified). Default value is 1 which does not change the values in the texture. Default value is 1.
	BaseColor	Color4 used for diffuse colors in non-metals ("dielectrics") or specular color in metals. When used with BaseColor texture, this color defines a color mask that is multiplied with each texture value. When alpha component is less then 1, then other color components need to be pre-multiplied by the alpha value. Default value is White.
	BlendState	Gets a BlendState that is used to render the base texture. If null a Opaque or a PremultipliedAdditiveBlend (in case of transparency) will be used.
	EmissiveColor	Gets or sets a Color3 that that represents the emissive color - the color of the object regardless of the lights.
	HasOnlyEmissiveColor	Gets a Boolean that specifies if this material has only emissive color. This property is not used in PhysicallyBasedMaterial and always returns false.
	HasTransparency	Gets a boolean that specifies if this material is semi-transparent and needs to be alpha blended with the scene.
	IsTwoSided	Gets or sets a Boolean that specifies if the material should be rendered on both front and back side. Default value is false.
	Metalness	Float value that specifies the amount of metalness - 0 for non-metal; 1 for raw metal. When used with Metalness texture, this value defines a mask that is multiplied with each texture value. Default value is 1.
	Roughness	Float value that defines surface irregularities - 0 for totally flat surface; 1 for rough surface without any reflection. When used with Roughness texture, this value defines a mask that is multiplied with each texture value. Default value is 1.
	TextureMaps	Gets a list of TextureMapInfo object that defines texture maps that should be rendered with this material.

Methods

	Name	Description
	HasTextureMap	Returns true if this PhysicallyBasedMaterial defines the specified map type (has specified MapType in TextureMaps and it has a ShaderResourceView that is not null).
	RemoveTextureMap	Removes all TextureMapInfo structs with the specified mapType from the TextureMaps.
	SetTextureMap(TextureMapTypes, ShaderResourceView, String)	SetTextureMap updates existing TextureMapInfo (when TextureMapInfo with the same mapType was already added) or adds a new TextureMapInfo to the TextureMaps list. To also set the SamplerState, you can use SetTextureMap(TextureMapTypes, ShaderResourceView, SamplerState, String) method.
	SetTextureMap(TextureMapTypes, ShaderResourceView, SamplerState, String)	SetTextureMap updates existing TextureMapInfo (when TextureMapInfo with the same mapType was already added) or adds a new TextureMapInfo to the TextureMaps list. To preserve the existing SamplerState, you can use SetTextureMap(TextureMapTypes, ShaderResourceView, String) method.
	ToString	ToString (Overrides MaterialToString)
