UNIGINE’s own technical artist Ivan Muravsky covers everything you need to know to start interacting with the Material Graph.
Get acquainted with the interface and its main components. Learn how to apply textures, depth, roughness to materials; get to know how to work with blend masks; main principles of tessellation, translucency and opacity, how to create parallax interior seen in windows, realistic puddles and a lot more!

00:04:57 Creating a SampleTexture node, input colors
00:09:14 Connector options
00:12:05 Setting the brick material color
00:14:20 Adding the normal map and roughness texture
00:19:35 Creating sliders to control roughness, contrast and intensity of the mask
00:29:31 Adding a layer atop the brick wall
00:29:55 Demonstrating how to use the Portal In and Portal Out nodes
00:32:50 Using the Group parameter to arrange the material parameters in the material interface
00:43:06 Applying the Normal map data
00:49:34 Using portals to simplify the node graph representation
