I think we will have to keep this thread going because as you will notice no A2a staff are on the forum they are all most probably working on the bonanza release this weekend.

Guys, I’m sure it’ll be looked into. The Mustangs are already getting a second pass due to some errors found if I recall correctly. And yes, you guys are right, as the team has been fairly busy getting ready for launch. Give them a little time and I’m sure they’ll look it over.

They’re looking into it guys. I’m sure it’ll be fixed, as I keep bringing this, and other issues up. I also know that right now they’re all wheels on deck and there’s a lot of testing going on.

Tom, could you tell us more details what's wrong? As I understand this, you paint the alpha channel and expect a result which you don't get, right?

the alpha channel is too shiny , there is no way to turn it down, the alpha can be set to a dark black or light grey, the intensity is the same

this is should not be a "chrome plating" finish - this should be a base metallic finish
I pasted the alpha channel over the image
