I made a cot bedding texture today, and it was going along well. But when I loaded it in-game, the cot bedding texture was much brighter than the changing tables bedding texture. SO basically, why isn't the bedding in the cot the same as the bedding on the changing table? I used the same fabric texture for both of them, so I don't see why this should be happening. Thanks in advance. |

Have a look at the Material Definition for each part of the two packages, they have different values. You must change the values of the changing table to match the bedding of the crib. |

Sorry I can't take requests anymore! And I will probably never convert my creations for TS2 to TS3. |

Ok, I'm in Material Definition in the cots package, but I have no idea what values I am looking for. Help! What next? |

Okay! I've taken screenshots: This is the MMAT of the crib  I've added a green square around the values you need to change in the changing table This is the MMAT of the Changing Table:  In the red square, you can see that the values are totally different than in the MMAT of the crib. Just replace the values by the green ones and 'Commit' Save the package and test in game! |

The cot is still just as bright as it was before. I didn't describe my problem enough before, I meant how can I change the cot so it is the same brightness as the table. Using your info, I just used the MMAT's of the table for the crib. Have I done some thing wrong? The only difference I found was that the stdMatSpecCoef was not the same as yours. What have I done wrong? Thanks for your help! |

Do the opposite. In MMAT change the values of the bedding of the crib to match the values of the changing table. for example: Crib: deprecatedStdMatInvDiffuseCoeffMultiplier: 1 turn the value to 1.2 stdMatDiffCoef: 1,1,1 turn the values to 0.8,0.8,0.8 and so on.... |

Actually, probably best to leave the StdMatAlphaTestEnabled as it is in each object. You'll probably get unexpected side effects changing that.

Well, that was what I did Maylin, but it still didn't work. Then Echo said not to touch StdMatAlphaTestEnabled so I remade it doing what both of you said, and it worked! Thanks so much! |
