The shine problem is something I've had issues with so many times. I fixed it by having a bump map once, but then the shine shows when you put your settings on low. Sometimes the problem happens when your settings on high (and it looks normal on low), so it just confuses me so much.
Have you tried comparing your specular maps and normal maps to other trees using alpha?? If you manage to fix this or someone else knows how to, please share how lol.
And for that second issue, the original mesh you cloned had 2 mesh groups right? Other than a cut issue I have no clue what it could be.

The last picture is from someone that tested it and for them there was no shine problem but for me and another tester there is (we all had settings on high though) I do have a custom bump map and at first I tried having it as a png and then as a dds and when those two didn’t work I tried to make a blank bump map and there was literally no difference between the 3 D= I also have this issue on one other piece of cc =/ also i think I fixed the glitch issue, I had forgotten to delete the uv_1 and the two uvs didn’t line up =)

Hi! For the specular, the texture isn't matte. It needs to be black on main layer and black on alpha channel. Your alpha is white. HERE's a folder with matte bump and specular for objects. I suggest saving the files in a folder in desktop or somewhere you can have it at hand so you can quickly import it onto your items. As for the blend.. uuh.. i haven't been keeping track of the items they've recently released. Is this a modded item? or has EA added swings? I'm not finding anything about it. I'm thinking that the issue you're having is related to the weight, so please share the original item you cloned or are based your project from to compare the weights. On your last post you mention fixing the issues... so i'm not sure exactly what problem you're still having.

I tried these exact files earlier on and they didn't make a difference but now that I redownloaded hem and tried again it works like a charm! Thank you <3 EA added a swingset in seasons so they are a new object and they are amazing! =D I still had the shine issue but now with your help that is also fixed
