Cubic

The cubic pattern takes six texture elements and maps each one to each of the six pyramids centered at each half-axis, effectively mapping each texture element to each side of a origin-centered cube. The syntax is:

texture {
  cubic
    TEXTURE_ELEMENT_1
    ...
    TEXTURE_ELEMENT_6
  }

The first element cover the X+ half-axis, the second Y+, the third Z+, and the same X,Y,Z order is applied for the last three elements, on the negative half-axis (X-, Y- and Z-).
