		std::string &	specularPath,
		std::string &	normalPath,
		std::string &	heightPath,
		bool	isflipped )

Create a custom new material NOTE: DO NOT call delete on returned pointer. The associated texture will be automatically deleted when the loader goes out of scope.

Parameters

diffusePath	Path to the diffuse texture
specularPath	Path to the specular texture
