Although the Specular Scale may make it shiny compared to the original metal, the gold in the image above is almost like a chrome. I did get a response from WaterGuy130 and his method worked better than Specular Scale. Thanks for the advice!

In general, I cannot wait to see the new Metallic Materials. Roblox has had a lack of good looking Metallic Materials, Glass Materials, and Terrain Materials for a very long time. This update will be making history in Roblox and will be remembered as one of the major graphical updates.
Thatās a update thatās coming. It should come like early next year.

@RBLXImagineer is there a timeline on when this will be released? Iāve looked on this thread and it just seems that thereās been a lot of theories and speculation on when this is coming out but nothing official.
Iām sure many of us developers are dying to get our hands on these new features!

This is honestly just amazing, just looking at those new materials makes me want to get back into building cool-nature themed showcases!
This is gonna completely overhaul the game.
It is really amazing to see how much the roblox has focused on the experience of the developers and players, I always wanted to explore the more realistic side, however I was limited to looking for other sources outside the engine, with that we can explore more.
If possible I would love to participate in the beta.

Iād love to showoff the new materials, especially since my game already uses future lighting! This game was specifically made in mind to push the engine to itās limits and see just how pretty you can make a Roblox game while at the same time making it a very playable public hangout available for everyone!
Wow. Showcases are about to evolve a lot. We will see how people use these new materials.
Itās also very exciting to see that some terrain material is coming to parts!
Me and some others are working on a game where weād like to utilize all modern ROBLOX tools to make the game look as amazing as the ROBLOX engine would allow, while still being able to be ran by your average PC user.

It would be also cool if we could color certain terrain areas with color paint brush, because right now the terrain color is changeable only globally.

If Iām correct, I remember seeing somewhere that they are trying to work on a feature like that. They might also have customizable terrain textures.
