OK just bought this today at "cough" PC World.......Is there a tutorial anywhere for helping painters with spec shine and bump mapping for the SDK...?

Or is it in it somewhere....?

tony

The SDK explains everything. It just manages to hide all the information really well, and then explain it a bit obtusely. I'm not sure how much has to be set on the model as there's a load of settings in the Material Editor for FSX materials.

Tony

Specular shine and bump mapping is something the model has to be set to.


It's not straightforward at all.

I'll get my coat.....and move house....and maybe i'll move to some little island somewhere where i cannot bother anyone...... :doho:

Hi Tony,

A true FSX model will have the spec and bump maps set at the build stage. The bump shouldn't need changing unless there are changes in the panel lines. I'm still playing with the FSX bump map for the FSX default DC-3 in order to show doors where they aren't and not show them where they are. It's probably only peculiar to the DC3 where there are different door configurations for the one model and it looks odd to see the bump effect showing a door where there shouldn't be one and vice versa. As for spec, that just confuses the hell out of me and I need to read up some more about it.

Not that I'm thinking about it (am having a new PC built to run FS2004 smooothhhly), but do you have to have an internet connection to install FSX? The reason I ask is that I dont have net access at home and so buying FSX would be a complete waste of time.

I believe there's an option to do a phone activation, there certainly was when I put Acceleration on top.
