Summary0019163: experimental fab model winds up in shadow a lot
DescriptionSo I zoomed in to check out the experimental fab, and it looked weirdly dark. Much of the surface appeared to be just black, which seemed kinda boring. After rotating for a while, I eventually figured out that with some effort I could bring chunks of it out of the shadow and it looked cool.

However, my first impression was definitely "way too dark". It's possible I just picked the worst angle to start from?

Also it sometimes has way too much glare. Could we tone that down a bit?

Uploading a picture of it looking too dark, and a save game.

Cinth, this one probably needs to have additive specular to black, and then the gloss and specularity adjusted some.

Adjusted the shader to try and lighten the model a bit.

Marking resolved for now.
