Need Help with Shadow's Rings

[Toonfan91]

I'm trying to do something in honor of the new trailer for Sonic Movie 3, but I found out something.. odd. Shadow's inhibitor rings are still somewhat lit with lights off on black_void. If anyone has a way to help fix this, I would greatly appreciate it.

Since they're meant to be metallic, it's likely a cubemap. To change the intensity of these reflections or disable them entirely, you can right click on the model, then click "add override materials".
Then right click on the model again and hover over "show in element viewer" then click on "model". The element viewer will then appear. Click on the plus sign next to "materials" to expand the materials.
You then need to find the material for those rings, so look for a name that sounds that it might be referring to them.
When you've found the correct material, right click it, hover over "add attribute" then choose "vector3". Then where it says "newattriibute", type in "$envmaptint" without quotes.
You can then change the tint and strength of the specular reflections in that material by typing in a numerical value in this format "R G B" without quotes for each color. If you want to completely turn off the reflections, you can type in "0 0 0" without quotes.

Thanks for the help, I'll be sure to remember this, though I did figure out if I added a string $envmap command, then in the bar to the right put in just black, it worked just fine for my needs. But thanks again for the help

That's because it doesn't work when you put in an invalid value, so it disables.
Kind of like, instead of turning off a light with a switch, you smash the lightbulb. Even though the end result is technically the same, you shouldn't do one of these actions.
