Class c3dl.Material

c3dl.Material contains values which describe the behaviour of an object when light illuminates it. A material can be applied to an object which will make the object appear to be compose of something rough, shiny, metalic, etc. An object may also emit light, in which case a light is not required to be in the scene for the object to be colored/lit.
Defined in: material.js.
