How do I completely remove reflections on materials

I am recreating an old game that I played when I was young, I like the style it’s retro and and simple. I was coding day to night transition and I saw the grass material reflects light like it’s plastic. I think that’s called “PBR” but I don’t want any advanced reflections on my materials. Here is a video:


(Sorry for lag)

Is there a way to turn that off or is it because Roblox’s new lighting?

Why not use Textures instead of Materials?

I tried old grass texture too. And I made part neon for less reflection but there s still some reflections.


Also every materials do reflection.

Is reflection set to 0? That could be the issue

Yes, Reflectance value is 0. But Roblox materials always reflects light. I also tried to find custom materials but there is no results.

Not sure about this. Maybe but another texture on top and invisible, or one thats built in a way that cant reflect light

Have you tried changing the lighting mode to Voxel? Not sure if that will fix the issue or not.

I tried now and it doesn’t work. Even there is a texture and part transparency is 0 it still reflects.

It’s already voxel. I would try compatibility lighting mode if Roblox hadn’t remove it.

Make sure to double-check if your MaterialVariant has a RougnessMap image set. If not, it will use a default value that’s somewhat reflective. You’ll want to use (I think) a fully white image, indicating the surface has maximum roughness, i.e. light is scattered in all directions making the surface look anything but shiny.

It helped a bit but there is still a reflection.

I guess the only solution is changing brightness to 0 for now. Now I’m gonna use a part with a surface light on it. That means no reflections but a bit weird lighting. I hid the part under the map.

Try change the material to sand then put a grass texture over it

Didn’t work. Just adds more reflection.

It works for me, what lighting tech are you using ?

Voxel because I am trying to make old/classic graphics.

Changing the material to Plaster still has reflections but not as much. That could be another way for you, I don’t think there is a real way to remove reflecttions .

I need no reflection but I guess it’s not possible for now. Maybe they add an option about that to studio. Changing brightness to 0 is the only solution.
