Hi I am still converting multi textures to single textures, I am on animated models now, the barriers I did a while back the pole barrier is fine but for some reason the flat barrier as an issue with the sun surface factor, is this because of the normals? I have re textured it 4 times now but cannot seem to shake the artefacts, anyone know what's going on?

Hi HarryWever,
this model is for the community I cannot ask them to change their shaders to use it, but thank you for the suggestion.

I have noticed if I drop the detail in GG from highest to medium the artefacts disappear, I think I will upload these models to me free section anyway it may just be my PC and others could try it for me

You change the shaders in the fpe file, under the effect line.

Sounds like it might be an issue with the normal or specular maps to me though.

Hi,
try to change this line in the fpe file
effectbank\reloaded\entity_basic.fx
to effectbank\reloaded\character_basic.fx
and see what happens.. you never know.
But like belidos said it can be something in the normal or specular..

if you want, send me the files. and i can give it a try.

yes the visuals certainly look better but a panel is missing now on the back, so it is the model at fault
I am still learning how to do this I'm sorry to have bothered you with this, I will check my model again in the morning and weld all the vertices

I have attached the screenshots of the missing panel
