Sweeet dude!

Thank you for these fantastic visors! 

It looks like the last patch messed something up on these unfortunately. The JHMCS visors have just a sliver of the chosen color near the top and the standard visor appears matte rather than reflective.

They must have changed the description.lua code object names....I don't understand why they do this constantly across different modules....but I don't have time to fix this ATM.  I'll have to revisit it when I get a chance.

It appears that they misspelled the object name for the external Pilot model when viewing the pilot model only on Model Viewer:

 

{"pilot_F16_hmd_getails",    DIFFUSE            ,    "pilot_f16_helmet_details", false};
{"pilot_F16_hmd_getails",    NORMAL_MAP            ,    "pilot_f16_helmet_details_normal", false};
{"pilot_F16_hmd_getails",    SPECULAR            ,    "pilot_f16_helmet_details_roughmet", false};

Thanks for the response! First, I want to clarify my bug report on the JHMCS portion of the visor is incorrect - I had simply loaded up a different environment in ModelViewer than I was previously using which gave far less of a reflection. The JHMCS appears totally fine on all colors I tested.

For the HGU-55 though, I was able to take a further look as I noticed that your other liveries that have custom visors such as the 18th FIS Birds did not have the matte bug. 

I checked and these liveries have an included roughmet.dds they use, while the custom visor pulls the default ED one which was updated to a red color where yours are pink. Adding the roughmet from these liveries into a livery I've added a custom visor to and adding the associated line to that description lets the visor work again as normal.

Edit: Attached a gif for direct comparison of the two files. The one with the red HGU-55 visor coming straight out of the F-16C_50 Textures folder in the main install.

So you got it working again?  Good news.
