[Reported] Some original metallic skins looking weird on the new renderer.

[FONS]

Don't know if this post is in the correct section or it should be on the "Object Errors" section, move it if necessary.

 

I've noticed that few skins look weird on the new renderer, mostly metallic ones.

In general i would say they now look a bit overwashed due to the change of the way surfaces reflect light on the new renderer.

 

For example, on the P-51D "Gentelman Jim III" skin, everything looks now too light.

 

 

In this screenshot you can notice how all the decals placed on the metallic surface now look way too light.

 

 

 

On this ones, you can appreciate how the numbers look different when they are over the mettalic or the painted surface.

 

As this skins, few more affecting other aircrafts too. From what i've seen, the MiG's and the F-86F's are also affected.

 

I know that rechecking all the skins will be a tedious job, but it needs to be done by the developers of the aircrafts in order to adapt them to the new graphics engine, although not now, because it's not a high prority issue, and there's a lot of things with priority over this.

Metallic / Chrome shader effect changes / input are already reported.

 

Effects are all still pretty much WIP.

You're good, it was reported internally, not on the beta forums section.

 

All points you made and then some were in my bug report.
