Paint is matt and now glowing

Featured Replies

Hi there,

 

I was working on a paint for the NGX. I know it is WIP and some issues are not being solved.

Anyway, the fuselage is not glowing but is looks matt. I have saved it as dxt5 .dds and no mipmaps. So how can I make the fuselage glowing?

Erik,

 

The spec files can affect the amount of shine the textures would have. If you are still running the original -800/-900 bump/spec files, I would suggest backing them up to a safe folder location and downloading Chris Hick's (JokersWild) updated bump/spec files in the AVSIM library.

 

Looking in the library, it looks like Chris has submitted an single updated exterior package for the -600/-700 and -800. The KLM bird you show looks like a -800.

 

I hope this helps you out.
