[solved - no bug][structural solution 1.1.38] concrete parts have metal finish
hey,
I have a weird bug with structural solution: every SS concrete part have the metal foundation finish(which is probably without any texture i guess?).
It's not like I don't dislike it, I use the metal finish everywhere, but now I'm scared my whole metal base will turn into concrete next patch... I hope we can keep both.
also, metal finish will look mate with every color finish except for chrome finish.
on the capture attached you can see from left to right:
one 8x8x8 metal block with caterium finish(see how mate it looks, there is no reflection), one 8x8x8 metal block and two 8X8X8 concrete block with chrome finish.
I've tried, uninstalling and reinstalling the mod without change.
for some reason the "copy mod list" from SMM doesn't work but except for SS I essentially only have QOL mods so I don't think there is any conflict.
as always thanks for the amazing mods!

@e-rwan @Sevetamryn If you have a finish selected as the default swatch for concrete parts, then they will start with that finish. This is normal operation for the customizer.

I lately used the structural solution walls for the 1st time and was just wondering why they look not so much like concrete, more like metal.
In general, this is an amazing mod!
is it possible you've got one of the metal finishes set as the default swatch it's using?
chrome finish is my default swatch for concrete foundation yes, but other swatch dosen't change the metal aspect of it. it's as if the concrete texture is missing. In a way I hope it stays like this cause I realy like the metal aspect...

If you still think there is a bug, please let me know if you are using any mods that alter swatches or painting.
ok I get it, it's just that the finishes totally removes the concrete texture from the concrete blocks whereas it'll be visible with color swatches . it's good as is, nothing to change 🙏
Yes, I did that intentionally. The finishes are for metal and don't look correct with the concrete normal/roughness applied. Clean metal ftw.
