Build Structures That Showcase Realistic Materials

Choose Blocks That Benefit Most from PBR

Yitality enhances blocks with varied material properties. Prioritize:

• Metals (iron, copper, raw ore blocks) — gain mirror-like shininess
• Polished blocks (polished diorite, andesite, blackstone) — show reflections and depth
• Glass and ice — become transparent with reflective surfaces
• Wool and fabric — appear soft and textured
• Stone and cobblestone — display bumpy parallax-mapped surfaces
• Wood — darkens realistically when wet

Design with Lighting in Mind

PBR materials react strongly to light direction. Build with this in mind:

• Place lanterns and glowing blocks to cast soft light across polished surfaces
• Use contrasting materials (shiny metal next to matte stone) to highlight the depth effect
• Create wet areas near water to see wood darkening and puddles forming on stone
• Build hallways or enclosed spaces where subsurface scattering through snow or resin glows visibly

Layer Your Materials

Combine multiple block types in one structure. A marble pillar (polished blocks) next to an iron fence with a glowing lantern on top will demonstrate reflections, shininess, and emissive lighting together.
