Why do car engines have a different reflection to every other part?

236k jamesPLANESii  one year ago

Since car engines were added to the game, I've always noticed that they look darker than every other part when they're in the designer, but I'd never really looked into why. Today I did and found this.

This is what they look like when white, with 100% metallic and smoothness:

Instead of having the default reflection of Wright Island in the background, it has this weird black low-res speckled reflection instead. And it throws off it's colour in the designer, making it look darker than everything else. Idk how this even works lol.

Edit: Also sometimes happens in game too. But reflects this:

For some reason the other engine part on this build reflects normally in-game. I guess it's kinda like how when you unevenly scale parts it sometimes has whack UV maps too, but occasionally doesn't. Idk weird temperamental bugs...

kthxbye

    @jamesPLANESii for some reason on android it's completely different, infact, for some reason on android the reflections just looked like a blurry mess
