To make all your super cool custom textures PBR enabled, made by whoever, copy the c172_t.dds file and rename it c172_albedo.dds. It doesn't seem to matter if they have an alpha channel (probably ignored) or no mipmaps.

Then change the corresponding model= entry in the aircraft.cfg file to model=pbr and your done. Works like a charm.

Doesn't work on polished metallic paints though, as the spec file is no longer used. You'll have to make an appropriate metallic texture for that.

Oh! To answer your question. I'm getting older AND wiser so, PAY ATTENTION!
