Re: Metal Specular Maps - Your Methods
[ QUOTE ] We actually have a program that lets you paint on it to "comb" the surface, i'de show some examples but its all NDA stuff, sorry. [/ QUOTE ] So do you have an example then where the direction does change direction? This one looks like it's just following the blurred black and white noise around a horizontal axis… -

I agree with EQ, HDR cube gives an accurate specular since reflect and specular are both in the end emulating the same thing. A cube or PRT gives you all the scene colors, (yellow… -

What do you find works best as a specular map ATM for metals? Obviously metals are shiney but at the same time, dull. ATM, I usually make it quite dark, with bright… -

This double-spec technique intrigues me. I would like to see more examples if anyone has them. I assume you guys are using the same spec map for both highlights…
