Apologize if there is already a topic regarding this issue, but the search function..
I have a problem with the dying of an armor.
I have no blue dye on the dye slots yet the armor always shows blue tint..
I have tried with other heavy armors in preview mode and its the same for most of them. Scaled armor works fine however..
When i preview light or medium armor this does not happen.
I have atached a file showing the problem.

It’s not a bug at all, the armor is shiny.

Shiny armors reflect the environment map. So if the environment has a blue sky, it will shine blue. If it has a red sky, it will shine red, etc. Even a blue-ish moon will make it look a bit colder in contrast to other warmer colors in the environment.
