So I'll just fly around in this Bonanza with the gear down.  It just looks wrong ahha!

 

Plane/paint looks lovely in XP11 though!

Nice. How did you get the PBR reflections in the 3rd last and final pic or is it my imagination? Has Caranado update their planes?

Nice shots.

How he did it I do not know.

 

I can explain a way to achieve this and its really simple.

 

Open the obj. files of your airplane with a text editor and add the line : NORMAL_METALNESS  under the line POINT_COUNTS  in the text.

 

Open the normal.png`s in a painting-program.

Go to color-channels and reduce the value for blue.

Blue maximum reduced will make the normalfile look yellow/greenish and your arcraft will look exactly as is looks in XP10

The less you reduce the blue the more glossyness appears.

So making it green and then increase the blue channel a bit wil give you this "wet "look.

 

Loading  a plane from XP10 into XP11  is no problem and the plane will show as usual.

Loading a white plane and adding the NORMAL_METALNES line to the OBJ files ,will make it change to bare metal instantly.

Is there a way to fix it in planemaker?

Just for fun, I "bare-metaled" the NASA 747. :smile: Looks so nice!

"Society has become so fake that the truth actually bothers people".

Is there a way to fix it in planemaker?

Most likely not.

Can imagine it has something to do with SASL being not 100% compatible with XP11.

Mind, we are in such an early stage of XP11, its not more the an early beta.

For me Beta means Bringing Extra Troubelful Agony

 

I am confident when XP is no longer a beta, this will be solved.

Not something for us to fiddle with.
