Jackdaws Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 What part of a dds file is the shiny metallic look/layer? Sorry i cant explain it better. thanks. My Files..... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
gospadin Posted December 26, 2015 Posted December 26, 2015 the material is part of the model itself I think. some materials (like the P-51 aluminum skin) are always going to appear shiny compared to the normal skin material on other planes the glossyness/reflectiveness comes from the specular lighting map in the livery's description.lua, mode 2 i believe My liveries, mods, and missions for DCS:World M-2000C English Cockpit | Extra Beacons Mod | Nav Kneeboard | Community A-4E

See i just recently bought the mig15bis and added a dark custom skin to it and the reflection effect now looks so amazing i wanted to maybe add it to other planes. Thanks for your info... ill have another look at the files and see how i go! My Files..... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
