Canvas Material Megathread

I’m super happy the ability to change to world align was added. It greatly increases the possibilities to build, however there’s still some gaps in the feature.

Canvas Materials that lose Emission on World Align

Carpet

  • Garnish Carpet Neon Floor

Plaster

  • Blue Plaster & Wood Wall

Brick/Metal

  • Sci-Fi Panel

Non-Colourable:

Concrete

  • Concrete Condo

Brick/Metal

  • LC Brick Wall
  • Warning Stripes

Marble

  • Casino Counter Top (See Below)

Natural
(Ignoring Water)

  • Ice
  • Sandy Rock
  • Sandy Rock 2

Misc

  • Woodlands Acid
  • Boost
  • Fence
  • Fire
  • Star Ceiling
  • Burnt
  • Diamond
  • Light Gradient
  • Conveyor
  • Light Row
  • Sparkles

Wrong Categories:

  • Tile Light Blue ~ Carpet → Tile
  • Prism Tile ~ Tile → Misc (Design fits better with other Misc mats)
  • Oasis Glyph Wall ~ Wallpaper → Brick
  • Woodlands Acid ~ Misc → Natural (Keeps it with other Liquids)
  • Metal Tile ~ Tile → Brick/Metal
  • Metal Trim ~ Tile → Brick/Metal
  • Metal Trim 2 ~ Tile → Brick/Metal
  • Metal Trim 3 ~ Tile → Brick/Metal
  • Fence ~ Misc → Brick/Metal

Other Issues with Canvas Materials

  • If a Material is used on a Canvas Item and a Condo Surface, it will not load the material until you load that Canvas Item
  • Many materials’ Normal Maps do not scale with the Texture (examples include the Metal Trims, Plaster Wall 2, Blue Plaster & Wood Wall, and possibly multiple carpets).
  • Checkered Tile is very buggy. Its colouring doesn’t work properly in World Align and I’m 90% certain it’s not supposed to just be some random white squares with no Spec, Normal, or Roughness maps (Is it supposed to be the Nimbus floor?)
  • Casino Counter Top seems to just not have a Diffuse. It’s completely black while the Thumbnail shows a unique design.
  • “Stairs” has the UV seams very visible on this material (since it isn’t modified from the Stairs’ default wood)
Updates

[0.13.4.2] - Materials added from Halloween 2020 to Present included in list. Added Missing Thumbnails, Non-Colourable, and Wrong Categories sections.
[0.13.5.0] - Added two new water materials to the list.
[0.14.4.0] - This update focused on fixing MANY of these bugs. Colouring is functional on nearly all mats and World Align is labelled, making my list redundant.
