Parameter	Type	Description
id	String	The ID of the material
texture	String	The path of the material's texture. You'll need to load it through AddFiles. Defaults to units/mods/matcaps/id_df
global_value	String	For packs of mods, a global id assigned to all. A nice way to label your mods. You'll still have to create the global value through GlobalValueModule
material_amount	Integer	How the material is applied to the mask. Set to 0 to have it tile across the mask. Remove it to have it strech over the mask
name_id	String	A localization ID for the pattern (Defaults to material_ + id + _title)
texture_bundle_folder	String	Optional folder to contain the icon. The path will be guis/dlcs/ texture_bundle_folder/textures/pd2/blackmarket/icons/materials/id. Defaults to mods with ver="2"
ver	Number	Version of the module. 2 makes texture_bundle_folder default to mods

And any other tweakdata value. There are more that are not listed here yet.

The icon

The icon will be stored in guis/dlcs/mods/textures/pd2/blackmarket/icons/materials and will be named id.texture You will then need to add it using AddFiles.

Example

This example is what you would put inside your main node within your mod config

<MaskMaterial id="bubblewrap" material_amount="0"/>

This will add the mask material bubblewrap. You will still need to localize the name of the material. In this case material_bubblewrap_title will need to be localized using LocalizationModule. And add the texture which is currently units/mods/matcaps/matcap_bubblewrap_df and icon through AddFiles
