Bug description: For my aircraft I have set up a custom mud texture that has been implemented via decal meshes and the required xml entry. I can change the opacity of the texture via the debug slider but I would prefer the mud to appear in pieces like with the default textures. Therefore I have created a greyscale mud mask. When trying to add this custom mud mask for this texture there is no rendering diffference. Is it even possible to create a custom mud mask and if so, how does it need to be exported?

Hey @Boris

I have recorded a video to make it a bit more clear what my intention behind the bug report was.

Hi @b1e1n7e ,

Sorry for the delay.
This was caused by a missing value in the exported gltf.

A fix is in the making and will be available soon on SU5.
I will let you know when it’s ready to test.

Boris

Hey Boris,

thank you very much for keeping me up to date.
I am looking forward to test the mask again.

Hello,

Can you confirm ?

Hey Boris,

I just tested my custom mud mask and can confirm that it is working now. Very nice.
