    Specular not working

    I wonder if anyone else is experiencing this?

    In December I started playing with the specular image textures to create that "Chromalusion" effect you may have seen on expensive cars (Merc etc.). It worked fine on my DXT9 graphics card, FSX and (as far as I recall) Acceleration. Here's an image and you should see the green shimmer over (or through) the purple layer.



    OK, so recently I changed my system a bit. I have gone from Vista 32bit to Vista 64bit and also added an xfx 8800 GTS graphics card.

    Same plane, no chromalusion:



    Has anyone else experienced this or know of a fix? I am wondering if it 64bit driver specific, DX10 specific or FSX specific?

    Thing is, no matter what colour I "do" the speculars now, I get no colour effect showing through.

    as it worked in DX9,I'm inclined to believe that it is a DX10 issue m8. I really can't help much past that though as I'm still getting my head wrapped around FSX criteria.

    I'm still on FS2004, so I still don't have any experience with this type of texture.
