Move around with the WASD keys to have a closer look at the translucency, and the rock's bumpiness.


== Simple Unshaded Texture

Typically you want to give objects in your scene textures: It can be rock, grass, brick, wood, water, metal, paper… A texture is a normal image file in JPG or PNG format. In this example, you create a box with a simple unshaded Monkey texture as material.


[source,java]</pre>

<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>/** A simple textured cube -- in good MIP map quality. */
Box cube1Mesh = new Box( 1f,1f,1f);
Geometry cube1Geo = new Geometry("My Textured Box", cube1Mesh);
cube1Geo.setLocalTranslation(new Vector3f(-3f,1.1f,0f));
Material cube1Mat = new Material(assetManager,
    "Common/MatDefs/Misc/Unshaded.j3md");
Texture cube1Tex = assetManager.loadTexture(
    "Interface/Logo/Monkey.jpg");
cube1Mat.setTexture("ColorMap", cube1Tex);
cube1Geo.setMaterial(cube1Mat);
rootNode.attachChild(cube1Geo);</pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>Here is what we did: to create a textured box:


.  Create a Geometry `cube1Geo` from a Box mesh `cube1Mesh`.
.  Create a Material `cube1Mat` based on jME3's default `Unshaded.j3md` material definition.
.  Create a texture `cube1Tex` from the `Monkey.jpg` file in the `assets/Interface/Logo/` directory of the project.
.  Load the texture `cube1Tex` into the `ColorMap` layer of the material `cube1Mat`.
.  Apply the material to the cube, and attach the cube to the rootnode.


== Transparent Unshaded Texture

`Monkey.png` is the same texture as `Monkey.jpg`, but with an added alpha channel. The alpha channel allows you to specify which areas of the texture you want to be opaque or transparent: Black areas of the alpha channel remain opaque, gray areas become translucent, and white areas become transparent.


For a partially translucent/transparent texture, you need:


*  A Texture with alpha channel
*  A Texture with blend mode of `BlendMode.Alpha`
*  A Geometry in the `Bucket.Transparent` render bucket.  +
This bucket ensures that the transparent object is drawn on top of objects behind it, and they show up correctly under the transparent parts.

[source,java]</pre>

</div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>/** A translucent/transparent texture, similar to a window frame. */
Box cube2Mesh = new Box( 1f,1f,0.01f);
Geometry cube2Geo = new Geometry("window frame", cube2Mesh);
Material cube2Mat = new Material(assetManager,
"Common/MatDefs/Misc/Unshaded.j3md");
cube2Mat.setTexture("ColorMap",
    assetManager.loadTexture("Textures/ColoredTex/Monkey.png"));
cube2Mat.getAdditionalRenderState().setBlendMode(BlendMode.Alpha);  // !
cube2Geo.setQueueBucket(Bucket.Transparent);                        // !

<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>For non-transparent objects, the drawing order is not so important, because the z-buffer already keeps track of whether a pixel is behind something else or not, and the color of an opaque pixel doesn't depend on the pixels under it, this is why opaque Geometries can be drawn in any order.


What you did for the transparent texture is the same as before, with only one added step for the transparency.


.  Create a Geometry `cube2Geo` from a Box mesh `cube2Mesh`. This Box Geometry is flat upright box (because z=0.01f).
.  Create a Material `cube2Mat` based on jME3's default `Unshaded.j3md` material definition.
.  Create a texture `cube2Tex` from the `Monkey.png` file in the `assets/Textures/ColoredTex/` directory of the project. This PNG file must have an alpha layer.
.  *Activate transparency in the material by setting the blend mode to Alpha.*
.  *Set the QueueBucket of the Geometry to `Bucket.Transparent`.*
.  Load the texture `cube2Tex` into the `ColorMap` layer of the material `cube2Mat`.
.  Apply the material to the cube, and attach the cube to the rootnode.

*Tip:* Learn more about creating PNG images with an alpha layer in the help system of your graphic editor.


== Shininess and Bumpiness

But textures are not all. Have a close look at the shiny sphere – you cannot get such a nice bumpy material with just a plain texture. You see that JME3 also supports so-called Phong-illuminated materials:


In a lit material, the standard texture layer is refered to as _DiffuseMap_, any material can use this layer. A lit material can additionally have lighting effects such as _Shininess_ used together with the _SpecularMap_ layer and _Specular_ color. And you can even get a realistically bumpy or cracked surface with help of the _NormalMap_ layer.


Let's have a look at the part of the code example where you create the shiny bumpy rock.


.  Create a Geometry from a Sphere shape. Note that this shape is a normal smooth sphere mesh.

For a game, you create custom Materials based on these existing MaterialDefintions <span class="error">–</span> as you have just seen in the example with the shiny rock<span class="string"><span class="delimiter">'</span><span class="content">s material.


== Exercises


=== Exercise 1: Custom .j3m Material

Look at the shiny rocky sphere above again. It takes several lines to create and set the Material.


*  Note how it loads the `Lighting.j3md` Material definition.
*  Note how it sets the `DiffuseMap` and `NormalMap` to a texture path.
*  Note how it activates `UseMaterialColors` and sets `Specular` and `Diffuse` to 4 float values (RGBA color).
*  Note how it sets `Shininess` to 64.

If you want to use one custom material for several models, you can store it in a .j3m file, and save a few lines of code every time.


You create a j3m file as follows:


.  Create a plain text file `assets/Materials/MyCustomMaterial.j3m` in your project directory, with the following content:
[source]
----Material My shiny custom material : Common/MatDefs/Light/Lighting.j3md {
     MaterialParameters {
        DiffuseMap : Textures/Terrain/Pond/Pond.jpg
        NormalMap : Textures/Terrain/Pond/Pond_normal.png
        UseMaterialColors : true
        Specular : 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0
        Diffuse : 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0
        Shininess : 64.0
     }
}</span></span></code></pre>
</div>
</div>
<div class="ulist">
<ul>
<li>
<p>Note that <code>Material</code> is a fixed keyword.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Note that <code>My shiny custom material</code> is a String that you can choose to describe the material.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Note how the code sets all the same properties as before!</p>
<div class="olist arabic">
<ol class="arabic">
<li>
<p>In the code sample, comment out the eight lines that have <code>sphereMat</code> in them.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Below this line, add the following line:</p>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre class="CodeRay highlight"><code data-lang="java">----sphereGeo.setMaterial((Material) assetManager.loadMaterial(
    <span class="string"><span class="delimiter">&quot;</span><span class="content">Materials/MyCustomMaterial.j3m</span><span class="delimiter">&quot;</span></span>));</code></pre>
</div>
</div>
</li>
</ol>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="listingblock">
<div class="content">
<pre>.  Run the app. The result is the same.

Using this new custom material `MyCustomMaterial.j3m` only takes one line. You have replaced the eight lines of an on-the-fly material definition with one line that loads a custom material from a file. Using .j3m files is very handy if you use the same material often.


=== Exercise 2: Bumpiness and Shininess

Go back to the bumpy rock sample above:


.  Comment out the DiffuseMap line, and run the app. (Uncomment it again.)
**  Which property of the rock is lost?

.  Comment out the NormalMap line, and run the app. (Uncomment it again.)
**  Which property of the rock is lost?

.  Change the value of Shininess to values like 0, 63, 127.
**  What aspect of the Shininess changes?


== Conclusion

You have learned how to create a Material, specify its properties, and use it on a Geometry. You know how to load an image file (.png, .jpg) as texture into a material. You know to save texture files in a subfolder of your project's `assets/Textures/` directory.


You have also learned that a material can be stored in a .j3m file. The file references a built-in MaterialDefinition and specifies values for properties of that MaterialDefinition. You know to save your custom .j3m files in your project's `assets/Materials/` directory.


Now that you know how to load models and how to assign good-looking materials to them, let's have a look at how to animate models in the next chapter, &lt;&lt;jme3/beginner/hello_animation#,Hello Animation&gt;&gt;.
