Well Since I've been working on the Clovis sub I've also been working on ATSF and BNSF repaints, but every time i seam to repaint something it comes out way too glossy like these examples.



I'm currently using Paint.net to edit the files after i convert them using DXTBmp and RSBinTool.

When you open it back up in DXTBmp make a alpha channel pretty dark gray like about 85% towards black and use it as the alpha before you save it as the dds and that will dull it up. Lighter shiny darker duller.

thank you! i will try that in a few minutes and see how well that works before i experiment more

Thanks so much buzz456 now that i know how to fix this i can get to fixing the other repaints i have.

Alright since im new to this i need help with one last thing, how would i go about making a transparent DDS file since all im getting is either it being white or solid black.

Forget i said anything i figured it out

Alright i spent several hours repainting the GP30 into BNSF colors but I'm having a problem with the numbering system and where the numbers themselves are at on the train, anyone know how to fix this?

If this means anything, I've had this done, its a bit different paint than yours

Yeah i might just wait for your repaint to be released if it ever does, seams I'm having alot of trouble with mine such as no numbers on the train now.
