Toggle specific skin specular.

[Owsap 14284]

For those using the new costumes from the latest patches (since oct. 2024), there's now additional settings ("SourceSkinSpecular", "SourceSkin2Specular") to disable specular on certain skins. Previously, even if you reduced the specular strength in the proto, it would also affect the body strength. Below is the code to remove the specular effect from the source skin.

or you you can modify this

        ShapeIndex            41936
        Model                "assassin_halloween_2024.gr2"
        SourceSkin            "assassin_halloween_2024_1.dds"
        TargetSkin            "assassin_halloween_2024_1.dds"
        SourceSkin2            "assassin_face_devil_1.dds"
        TargetSkin2            "assassin_face_devil_1.dds"


with this

        ShapeIndex            41936
        Model                "assassin_halloween_2024.gr2"
        SourceSkin            "assassin_halloween_2024_1.dds"
        TargetSkin            "assassin_halloween_2024_1.dds"

Because there is no need to put the face in msm, the location of the face is already in gr2 from the costume, it reads it automatically without alpha channel (glow) even if the dds have alpha.
