View Full Version : Heh how to adjust the shinyness of the shaders?

So the thing is, ive always just colored the area under the alpha channel darker/brighter when i have wanted to adjust it, but lately ive gotten an impression that its possible to adjust it in the editing program. Im using gimp, and the help button doesnt do anything, i guess i would need to download the help files separately, and messing around blindly in the program didnt bring any results. So if its possible, how is it done in gimp? thanks.:xp:

You can't edit the actual shininess of the shader without actually editing the shader. If you want your object to be shiner, make the part of the alpha channel darker. If you want it to be slightly shiny make the alpha channel lighter. If you want it to be without shine, make the entire alpha white.
