Stickers

Foil/Embossed

Foil stickers (Also sometimes called Embossed Foil Stickers) simulate directly adhered metal leaf.

In addition to a colour base texture with an alpha channel, Foil stickers require a Normal Map to achieve the foil/embossed effect.

A metalic surface finish is automatically added to foil/embossed stickers, including environment map tinting.

Foil Stickers

While we have some sensible defaults, these may not look good on all stickers, so you can adjust some of the properties that control the lighting of the sticker.

Property Name	Data Type	Description	Default Value	Minimum Value	Maximum Value
PhongExponent	Texture	A custom phong exponent. For more information see https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Phong_materials	`models/lambda/shared/surfaces/metal`	N/A	N/A
PhongBoost	Float	Provides a boost to the phong shading effect	200	1	1000
PhongFresnelRanges	Vector	The Fresnel ranges values control the optional Fresnel term which is used to give rim lighting to a model. In short, this brightens those surfaces of the model that face away from the players viewpoint. The nearer their surface is to being parallel to the viewing angle, the brighter they become. These brighter surfaces are picked up by the HDR pass giving them a bloomed effect.	[0 0.5 1]	[0 0 0]	[5 5 5]
EnvMapTexture	Texture	The environment map texture. You can provide your own custom envmap if required for your design, otherwise map-compiled cubemaps are used instead	env_cubemap	N/A	N/A
EnvMapTint	Vector	Controls the intensity of the EnvMap reflections on the sticker. 0 0 0 is no intensity, 0.5 0.5 0.5 is half etc	[0.1 0.1 0.1]	[0 0 0]	[1 1 1]

Sub-Styles

This style contains a sub-style. Sub-styles use the same underlying requirements as Foil/Embossed but have a different tag.

Regular foil stickers have a suffix tag of (Foil) while sub-styles that work exactly the same have a different suffix tag

Gold

If your sticker is foil but golden, you can use the Gold sub-style.
