Shader Settings

The Shader Settings provide basic settings that aren't specific to cel-shading but are necessary for general CG.

Culling Mode

Culling Mode	Description
Back	Don't render polygons that are facing away from the viewer (default) i.e. back-facing polygons are culled.
Front	Don't render polygons that are facing towards the viewer. Used for turning objects inside-out.
Off	Disables culling - all faces are drawn. Used for special effects.

When enabled, system automatically determines rendering order.

Rendering order in the scene.

Enables different modes that allow the simulation of a variety of transparent objects.

Control the stencil buffer which manipulates pixel drawing.

Stencil	Description
Replace Stencil Buffer with	Replaces a pixel value in stencil buffer with Stencil Value when drawing.
Draw If Not Equal to	Draw a pixel when the number in stencil buffer isn't equal to Stencil Value.
Off	Nothing is written to stencil buffer and Stencil Value doesn't affect at all when drawing.

Stencil value that's submitted to the stencil buffer for controlling the per-pixel drawing. Min is 0. Max is 255. The default is 0.

Allow for the use of a texture to control the transparency of the shader.

Clipping	Description
Off	Disable clipping.
On	Enable clipping.
Clip Transparency	Enable clipping with Transparency Level.

A gray scale texture which utilises its brightness to control transparency.

Invert clipping mask results.

Specifies the strength of the clipping mask.

Adjusts the transparency by considering the gray scale level of the clipping mask as an alpha value.

Use Base Map Alpha as Clipping Mask instead of Clipping mask texture.
