smdi change

[Victim_913 26]

I retextured the csat jet. One version is black. It's not an unreasonable darkness but the smdi makes it look super dirty and it sucks.

I've never had so many texture issues in any game more than this one. It's like they made separate beautiful islands with zero thought of how it effects object textures. The Green they use for all Nato clothing and equipment and vehicles I just about the worst green color I've ever seen. SO they dirty and fade the textures in order to blend.

This jet is a good example. The gray hex sucks in game. it looks like it's been buried and not as good as the actual texture.

Here you can see, The smdi has a brownish dirt shine. The black in the picture has no dirt. Its just a light black with dark lines. This jet in particular has a terrible look in the game. Without the shit smdi they used, the real textures don't look bad at all.

 

If I change the smdi, how can I get the game to use my new one? Or what else can I do?

Thanks

You can use hiddenSelectionMaterials in a config patch to choose a different rvmat for the jet. With a different smdi.
