play with the specular. If you're going for a desired effect for one particular item then you'll need to create a new 2/0 node for it.

Well I took what I found above and applied it to the hull and turm of the VIIb and it's very interesting what came about from it. The shading of light is very pronounced and profound - I like it! And it hasn't even been tweaked yet, this was just slapped together to see how it would appear in game.

okay played enough today. I'm tired
Maybe Privateer will let us know what he did and we can get some very interesting effects. If not, in time I'll figure it out.
