gloss reduction on aircraft how to

Recommended Posts

Hi all-

 

I've reestablished a flying relationship with the Eaglesoft Citation X and forgot how glossy the exterior model is. Is there a way to reduce this via one of the dds files in the texture folder or....?

 

Thanks,

Mark

I'll be happy to do that although this wasn't a support question, per se.

 

I'll leave it here for those who may be able to help, substituting 'any aircraft' for 'Eaglesoft Citation X'

 

Thanks,

Mark

No problem, here's the answer from our place...

 

Using DXT BMP export the alpha to your paint program of choice and lighten the grey tones then reassemble the mess.... :rolleyes:

Best to go over to the repainters forum and learn the basics for anyone interested in modifiying files for personal use... B)
