I'm at a loss. I must be missing something but I cannot figure out why my sim's torso skin is shiny on this open-jacket CC I've made. Here's the package file
What the spec maps look like:

Hi. This is caused by your normal map. It does not have an alpha channel, so you must have saved it with wrong settings ( it should be BC3 or DXT5). You'll have to remake a normal map, since the alpha is already lost
That said, there is a problem with your specular. It is too big, should be half the size of the diffuse

You'll have to remake a normal map, since the alpha is already lost thank you. i figured out exactly what the issue was, i was saving the .dds with the correct settings, however before i saved i'd click the rgb channel in the channels window in photoshop so that all of the 'eye' icons on the channels were lit up. i didnt know that would make a difference in the saved result. |

It shouldn’t, though. Unless it’s a bug in your version of Photoshop, that shouldn’t influence anything
In the future, just work in png, it’s less troublesome. Just use layer mask instead of alpha
