Lets you apply bump, displacement, and other maps.

Material Editor > Arch & Design Material > Special Purpose Maps rollout
Each left-justified setting has a checkbox for enabling and disabling the map, and a button for defining the map.
Interface
- Bump
-
Click the map button to assign a Bump map. Use the multiplier value to adjust the strength of the bump effect.
- Do not apply bumps to the diffuse shading When off, the bumps apply to all shading components: diffuse, highlights, reflections, refractions, and so on. When on, bumps are applied to all components except the diffuse. This means bumps are seen in reflections, highlights, and so on, but the diffuse shading shows no bumps. It is as if the material's diffuse surface is smooth, but is covered by a bumpy lacquer coating.

- Displacement
-
Click the map button to assign a Displacement map.
The numeric setting is a multiplier value for adjusting the strength of the displacement effect.
- Cutout
-
Click the map button to assign a Cutout map. For example, you could use this feature to map an image of a tree to a flat plane and use opacity to cut away the parts of the tree that are not there.

- Environment
-
Click the map button to assign a local Environment map to the material.
- Additional Color
-
Click the map button to apply an additional map or shader whose output is added on top of the shading performed by the Arch & Design material.
- Self Illumination Color
-
Click the map button to assign a Self-Illumination map.
