[QUOTE=Demon!;33993083]Without a proper phong mask the entire mesh is going to be super shiny. Leading to why it looks the way it does now.[/QUOTE]
A pure white one (aka, no alpha channel) is fine for a simple object like this. Why would it need a variable level of shine? It's all one material.
Well the only other thing I can think of is that it's using $envmap, and because of this everything is super shiny.
Posting his VMT might help.

Pure white in the alpha is always the maximum amount of shiny no matter how simple the object is.
A phong mask still needs to be made to tone down the shine. Even if there is no need for variable shine levels.
[QUOTE=Sparkwire;33992839]It looks like shit, along with everything else you've made.[/QUOTE]
Ah, Spark. I want to hate you, but I just can't help but love you. <3

no, you use $phongboost.

Doesn't quite look like TF2-style wood. Could possibly use subtler grain and more varied brushstrokes. And less phong.

How rude. The model isn't really bad at all in my opinion. It's just mostly the texture that needs work.

Honestly, the direction of the brush strokes don't make much sense to me. Wouldn't they be traveling along with the grain of the wood, instead of the way it is now? They look far too strange the way they are now.

You missed my point. I like it too, but for the past how many pages, all it does it get trashed on.

I thought The Great Medal Debate was rather funny to read. Big thanks go to Sparkwire. His comments are always a blast.

The colour is good, but like people have said, the brushstrokes are off.

I don't think this is actually that bad. FUCK YOU ALL.
This will probably get me dumb- and latevoted for being such an obvious idea, but has anyone made a Rocketeer helmet for the Solly?

Yep, I'm very certain this has been made.
So I had a proper watch of Helljumpers tutorial instead of bullheading my way through written ones and turns out I've been missing out boatloads of vital shit that's entirely my own fault
