	Traditionally, the surface appearance of ships in Oolite has been defined entirely by textures specified in the ship’s model file and the ''[[#smooth\|smooth]]'' attribute. Test release 1.67 added support for [[Shaders in Oolite\|shaders]], and test release 1.69 expanded this to a more flexible '''material model'''. Under the new model, the texture file names in model files have been repurposed as '''material keys'''. A material key specifies an entry in the ship’s '''material dictionary''', specified in the ship’s ''[[shipdata.plist]]'' entry. For backwards compatibility, if no material of a given name is found, a material is generated using the material key as a diffuse texture name – providing the same functionality as previous versions of Oolite.
