BlackLight Masking

BlackLight Masking allows you to create distance-based effects that appear based on specific set of Keys. It works by only showing effects when a specific Light Source (set to the Color Black) has it's Range set to the Key as defined in the BlackLight Masking to show the effect.

There are 4 BlackLight Masks permissible per Material.
