# Layer Data

The layer customization component is responsible for defining key aspects of a specific render layer. There are several aspects of a layer that can be modified:

* Effect
* Pulse Frequency
* Color
* Texture
* Visibility when carrying pollen

{% code title="Template:" %}

```json
"resourcefulbees:rendering/v1": {
  "layers": [
    {
      "layerEffect": "GLOW",
      "pulseFrequency": 5.0,
      "color": 65535,
      "texture": "/example/pollen",
      "isPollen": false
    }
  ]
}
```

{% endcode %}

### <mark style="color:orange;">`layerEffect`</mark>

The effect the layer will have. There are 3 options available:

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="NONE" %}
This effect does nothing. It is the default option and does not need to be set explicitly.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="ENCHANTED" %}
This effect applies the enchantment glint effect to the layer.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="GLOW" %}
This is used to apply a `fullbright` glow to the texture similar to the flash a creeper makes.\
This combined with the <mark style="color:orange;">`pulseFrequency`</mark> field will allow for the same effect as a creeper.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
