Hello,

I've looked over the documentation but cannot seem to find an answer to this question. Is it possible to create new techniques for use in the material editor? If so, how do you go about doing so?

Welcome to Esenthel, Viktor. Did you download the engine? It's free to try. Most stuff is very easy to figure out.

If you mean the techniques like "Alpha Test" or "Blend", there is no option to create new ones. There is support for many types of mapping, as well as shaders, though.
