Borderlands 3 Echo Device Material

The Echo Device supports players changing the skin of the case, so like class mods and weapons it needed to have color breaks and a system set up for us to create skins easily for it. The Echo material supports changing color, specularity, and metallic levels of multiple parts of the device, as well as projecting a pattern wrap to the echo from a template that concept uses, which allowed concept artists to paint directly to a template in Photoshop that would get projected onto the mesh. Some of the skins have advanced effects such as being able to see electronics on the interior of the mesh though the use of cube maps.

The mesh itself was created by one of our senior content artists, Chris Neeley.
