Questions on PBR Texture updates

[Santus]

- Have all flyable aircraft received their texture updates to be compliant with the 2.5 environment and if not is there a list with which ones have?

 

My guess for instance is that the F-5e hasn't been updated yet, am I right?

 

- Has anybody else noticed that no matter what SPEC or Roughmet texture you use for the Spitfire, it makes no difference whatsoever to the actual model? Am I missing something?

 

Cheers

Thanks for the effort Strut, please share your conclusions. :thumbup:

Santus to answer your question i think your right the Spit is using PBR / RoughMet maps , i might be wrong but i cant see any Specular Maps in the game folders for the Spit. Im no "TechY" so i dont really know , but looking around the files that is my conclusion. If you want to see for yourself look in the games Spitfire Livery folder here : \DCS World\CoreMods\WWII Units\SpitfireLFMkIX\Liveries\SpitfireLFMkIX - the games "RAF Standard" Spitfire skin is using PBR/RoughMet maps, the rest of the games Spit Skins dont seem to have Specular maps or any referrence to them in thier Lua files. You can find the default Spitfire RoughMet maps in the zipped / compressed " SpitfireIXc" folder at \DCS World\CoreMods\WWII Units\SpitfireLFMkIX\Textures .

There would be a file with the "*_RoughMet.dds" extension if it was.

The Spitfire Comes w/ PBR Roughness / Metallic Maps.

 

 

You Must not be setting up the livery and filenames correctly

 

Examples Below, Default Livery, and then Default w/ a Modified Roughness/Metallic Map.
