Helmet Shines when in shaded area

[SGT Fuller 856]

Was wondering if anyone didnt mind looking over this rvmat to tell me why my helmet shines so much when in a building or in a shaded area.

question: texture="USAF_SFS\env_land_co.paa"; did you make your own environment texture file? If not, your path is wrong

[SGT Fuller 856]

No i didnt..it came from arma 1..i tried pathing it to the default arma 3 env_land_co.paa but it didnt work..im just not getting what the issue is

Try reducing your specular to 0.

Abs

[SGT Fuller 856]

Tried that and no go..

care to put down a picture

Hmm, it seems to shade correctly, it just doesn't receive shadows. So it probably doesn't have anything to do with specular.

What about the fresnel in Stage6?

Can you elaborate on this more?

Use Super shader instead of basic shaders

[color=#000000][font=Lucida Console]PixelShaderID="Super";
[/font][/color][color=#000000][font=Lucida Console]VertexShaderID="Super";[/font][/color]

[SGT Fuller 856]

Super was what it was on before hand

Im not good at rvmats but i am looking at one of mine and on

stage 7 i have source name: a3\data_f\env_land_co.paa

and stage 6 i have #(ai,64,64,1)fresnel(7.53,5.44)

another stage 6 i have #(ai,32,128,1)fresnel(9.7,3.1)

last one stage 6 #(ai,64,64,1)fresnel(1.6,0.8)
