Passes, Partitions and overrides

Passes, Partitions and overrides

Partitions exists within passes, so you cant create partitions without
having a pass
where to create it, so basically you do your pass first and then add
partitions as you wish.

Partitions are like groups you can drag and drop objects there, put
properties and overrides

About overrides, theres no formula about what to override, when in the
examples
they override the diffuse_inuse they are turning off the checkbox that
you find in lambert
or phong shader where it says diffuse. so it will depend on what you
want to do.

if you need you can override the diffuse channel as color, or the
diffuse_inuse as a parameter
depends what you need, mostly it has to do with alpha channel and that
sort of things.
