So i'm doing some experimenting, and was wondering where that bitmap is found? I've looked through the globals tag and didn't find anything. So does anybody know? Hope to hear back soon and thanks for any help in advance.

aren't specular maps stored individually in the multipurpose maps? Or am I just completely misunderstanding what multimaps are for...

Multipurpose maps are how you do bump map effects on objects. Models that use multipurpose maps use shaders that cannot use specular. Shaders that use specular, often can use bump maps. But the brighter the color of the pink on the multipurpose map, the brighter your reflections can be. So, you can make it bright enough to look like it has specular, without actually having it, as long as you use the right reflection map. I figured that one out alone. Lol.

Oh, i thought specular reflections had a bitmap, like reflection maps do. My mistake. Lol. But it is good to know how it works. Thanks, guys :3
