Wheel issue.

We are going to perform maintenance on Saturday, March 28th 2026, starting at 8:00 am UTC. During this maintenance, we will move all development resources from the forums to our Downloads section. The website will be unavailable, it is estimated to take no longer than 30 minutes. More information.

    Hello,

    Your problem may be due to the specular map being used, a white specmap like the vehicle_generic_smallspecmap will give a shiny, reflective effect on the mesh whereas a grey specmap would give a more matte look. My advice would be to try using different specular textures, I would suggest one but I cant think of a suitable one off the top of my head currently. I hope this helps.

    I usually don't bother with a spec map or ENV when I'm doing wheels. I normally just got with the wheel texture and a blank normal map. But I'll give a grey spec a try. Thanks


    EDIT. Worked with a grey spec. Thanks again bud
