Hello,

The Type 7 Hull Material is showing up white on my eclipse. How have others managed to get it to be that beautiful sparkling bluish-black?
Thanks.

The Intel material is the blue/black

That's just the lighting in sector space? Type 7 is white, but unlike the matte Type 6, it's glossy and reflective. It's like the fleet material, except white instead of gray.

Yeah, it's just the lighting. It's not just sector space, it appears dark and speckled with shiny bits in some systems too; while in others it appears almost white. I use it myself; it's a very nice skin.
