Reduce Shinning on textures MI8

Hi, Im trying to do a repaint for the MI8.

The problem is that my texture is very shinny or reflects a lot of Light. and looks very unrealistic and plastic.

here is what I have.

and Im looking for something more matte even seems black (like the last pic)

I guess it has to do with the Alpha channel.. but The MI8 template doesnt have a Spec File.

The Mi-8 Does have Specular Maps/Files.

where can I find it?? I only see 4.psd Files, all of them for a different part of the chopper.

Not like the P-51 wich has a spec file apart

Hi,

here ...\DCS World\Bazar\World\textures\MI-8MT.zip can you find the texture files for the Mi-8.

Everything with _spec in the filename is for the Specular Map. Also some files are in the Skinfolders for the Mi-8 (Liveries-Mi-8MT).

{"mi_8_tex1", 0 ,"ETPS_1",false};
   {"mi_8_tex1", 2 ,"ETPS_1_spec",false};

0 = diffuse map > what you paint on

2 = Spec layer >

this is what makes it shiny or not shiny.

You need to add the spec layer yourself.

Also Need to do the Spec Layer yourself, as there's not really a "Universal" Spec Layer.

You'll need to Utilize the R,G,B Channels.

Thanks.. will work on it and see what happens..

{"mi_8_tex1", 0 ,"ETPS_1",false};
   {"mi_8_tex1", 2 ,"ETPS_1_spec",false};

0 = diffuse map > what you paint on

 

2 = Spec layer >

 

this is what makes it shiny or not shiny.

Does the Su-27 have similar file where we could bring up the shining a bit?

Im working on a skin at the moment and would like to bring up the shining slightly.
