what does that mean exactly?
u mean it controlls team colour? id think u meant that though...
or like sonic's pink layer?

all I know is super scope has a value of 255, 255, 0 (yellow).  I'm seeing what happens when I change them now

EDIT: nothing happened, those values appear to be a coincidence :/ sorry

Found this:

Flag3
If flag 3 is set to 2, the material will not be affected by fog.  If set to 1, it will.

Should be useful to stage makers.

Nice bump.

OK. I changed the Flag of Ness' first shader to 6 and.......
Basically, it made Ness all black like Dark Link and any instance where he would have an overlaying color made him flash white.

See for yourself.

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

So its usually all black, but it appears to grab the latest overlay sometimes.  and I had one instance where he had black pixels all over but his actual texture was visible.

That's like what happened when I tried to give emerald Falco normal Falco eyes.

Found something pretty useful
Flag6- Red
Flag7- green
Flag8- Blue

collectively these values control color.
not sure what they'd do over a normal texture
but
works over black and white as far as I can tell

very nice find :D

that would be the diffuse RGB values.

meaning I could implement that into my dark green thunder and finally release my DPv3 :D

glad I didn't release my beta here yet ^_^

Well, I'm not positive thats what they do..

ut it definately has something to do with color, as changing one lightens, as PAVGN noted, and the highest values I see on each of them are 255, which really couldn't be anything else.  And hopefully I'll have some examples of what flag3 can do by tomorrow.

[DarkPikachu]

so this is what's for current info on materials:

materials:
flag3: Shader
flag4: ??
Type: Settings
flag5: ??
flag6: R
flag7: G
flag8: B

Flag3 - shader parameters
-0 ???
-1 light/glow
-2 cell shade
-3 lambert
-4 metal
-5 reflective
-6 environ.
-7 phong
-8+ ???

Type - normal settings
-0 normals 2
-1 normals -1
-2 normals +1
-3 normals 0

*sigh*
the node structures and material-shader structures are a pain -.-*
they usually start with '61 FE ######(0 or F)' though (BP registers)

I'll start experimenting with flag4 tomorrow, if I were to guess what it does now, I'd say visibility settings behind/in front of other models.

Good idea, I have yet to see layer/depth in the material nodes yet.

[DarkPikachu]

that unk value in the modset looks suspicious >_>

but it's prbly been taken care of in 064 already

@mods

may I suggest another move to the programming board

[??_?]

I've been playing with materials2, or whatever you fancy people call it now, and I see that some of the nodes are identical to each other.

first node
00 00 02 00 FF FF 2E 80 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00

second node
00 00 02 00 FF FF 2E 80 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00

third node
00 00 02 00 FF FF 2C 80 00 00 00 01 02 00 00 00

The first and second are identical all the way through, but the third node's differences don't stop with the first line, it has a lot of different values.
