Base color and normal maps
What Forge paints, and when to ask for more detail.
- Base colour: the flat colour with no lighting
- Normal: fine surface bumps without extra triangles
Forge paints a base-colour texture and, when the surface needs it, a matching normal map. It does not produce metalness or roughness maps; set those in your engine's material.
