Actually they are doing it wrong. you have to put that layer under the paint, like it was in Targetware. You then do some chips in the skin and the shiny metal becomes visible. You don't put shiny metal effect on top of the paint. The game i think has this effect done, but since the last patch all the lighting was messed up and the metal reflections are pretty much gone.

Cool, extra points for the vid being a fw190

I like it! Think they look far better than the bulk skins without the effect.

WW2 military aircraft that were cammo painted were not glossy.

Defeats the whole purpose.

Please, let us not go down the road of the cinematic (and totally wrong) propller blade effects, but this time with modern air show paint jobs.

How about "cork-screw" tracers then.

Agreed but there still would be a shine to the matt paint jobs.

Do you think that a matt paint job doesn't contain a shine then?

They are hacking a engine feature but using it in a wrong way, I´ll give you a hint of how this effect become usable in CoD :

That aircraft's looks wet

What's wrong with corkscrew tracers? Do you mean the smoke trails? Seem ok to me.

Now that's a great idea!
