NEW fixed , Game lighting Mod

I have found how to fix player lighting by adjusting files in the common.viv file.

By default when lighting is turned on the players face, skin and shoes give an unrealistic shine. Players faces look better when lighting is turned off, but then the skin tone and court looks like shit.

By adjusting the cmntex.fsh which contains the lighting for shoes, arms and legs, I have reduced the shine, which gives both arms and shoes a more realistic look.

There are also 15 files fspec01.fsh to fspec15.fsh which contain the lighting for the 15 different headshapes the game uses for each player
Once again I have reduced the contrast of each file, which reduces the shine, so each cyberface now looks like the lighting is turned off but still has a subtle lighting shine to blend with the skin tone.

This gives the game the ideal balance, the cyberfaces and shoes look more detailed, and the head and arm skin tones still have a nice subtle lighting effect.

These files only work with lighting turned ON!!!!
if your graphics card does'nt allow lighting?, then get a new card that does!

You can download the files here:

Just simply exact them into your sgsm folder and enjoy!!!
