Shiny Aircraft

Postby ApplePie » Mon Feb 01, 2010 9:47 pm

I just installed a new aircraft (HJG KC-135) and it looks all silvery. Is this related to the repaint? And if so, how do I fix it?




Thanks,
Christian

You have to lighten up the Alpha channel.  A white alpha gives you a totally flat "reflecivity", and the darker the shiny.
