The layer configuration is a combination of reference tables that can be used for fragment writing calculations.
When using reference tables, you must set the corresponding layer configuration.
For details on reference tables, click Here.
The material panel standard mode and advanced mode currently mention "layer configuration numbers" and "configuration types", but these are both the same things. The terminology will be made consistent in a future release.
Unsupported lookup tables in a layer configuration will not have any effect on writing. The table below matches layer configurations and lookup tables.
○ : Supported
△ : Supported as grayscale
-- : Not supported
| Layer Configuration Number | Lookup Table Spotlight | Lookup Table Distribution 0 | Lookup Table Distribution 1 | Lookup Table Reflection | Lookup Table Fresnel | Processing Load |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Layer configuration 0 | ○ | ○ | -- | △ | -- | × 1 |
| Layer configuration 1 | ○ | -- | -- | △ | ○ | × 1 |
