Title: Dark weapons?
Post by: Scobalula on April 09, 2016, 04:14:30 pm
I've noticed on many Ghosts weapons I've ported, most the weapon seems to be rather...dark...here's the SVU for example:

As you can see, it is rather dark, however if I look slightly away from any Primary Light it looks fine:

Here's the PDW-57 for comparison:

As you can see, it looks fine. I haven't converted the SVU, CBJ, etc. any different, which makes me believe it has something to do with the model, I've tried changing assman settings, reversing normals, etc. but no avail. I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this dreary weapon. :P

Didn't really do much, here's a pic of asset viewer (looks same in-game, asset viewer gives better view):

Forgot to reply, but I fixed this. Seems normal maps provided with guns from Ghosts (and possibly AW) are a bit brighter than ones I compared to let's say, the PDW or others exported with Lime32.

My fix was to lower brightness just enough for it to look on par with the others, and the guns looked fine after that. :)

Just out of curiosity, were you able to get the anims from ghosts or did you make them yourself? Because I want to port ghosts weapons, but I dont feel like having to animate them myself.

Tom added support to Lemon for Ghosts in 1.423 about a month ago.
