Quote - I'm looking forward to getting this update. GND4 is one of the few things I bought over the years. Did you remove the burned-in specular on the textures, especially the lip?

yes, all over the body and head, as well as balancing out all the textures to look better in all lighting. although ive left the lips since they render well with the new shader. 

people need to remember that this character, as well as the PDF tutorial, was made back in 2007 -- over 5 years ago -- and a lot has changed since then.  this is the second major, free update.
