Inputs

red
The red component of the reflected light (range 0.0 – 1.0)
green
The green component of the reflected light (range 0.0 – 1.0)
blue

Example

This command may be used in either the hm.cfg file, or from a command file.

Specular reflection from an object produces highlights. The amount of specular reflection seen depends on the location of the viewpoint. It is brightest along direct angle of reflection.

Settings may be used to simulate different materials:

Glass	*setspecularity(1.0,1.0,1.0,128)
Plastic	*setspecularity(0.7,0.7,0.7,64)
Lead	*setspecularity(0.5,0.5,0.5,32)

Errors

None.
