Seperate specular maps not working

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a material with a Seperate Diffuse, Normal and Specular Map
2. Set the properties accordingly
3. Run

It seems that whatever I try, the Specular map always get used as only texture 
(without actual specular mapping)

Yeah, I wouldn't count on this to work...not sure I ever tried this... One 
thing you could do is to make it via an ogre-material...that should work, but 
you have to write the material-script on your own. Have a look at the 
ogre-manual.

For mapping just name the ogre-material same as the blender one.

The thing is that it is really hackish to do it with ogre materials, since this 
functionality works on single textures (so 1 texture for diffuse and specular).
Things like Specular, Alpha and Hightmaps are things that are really necessary 
for designers, and since Blender has a functional pipeline for this, it would 
be best if it would work like expected imho.

Well, yes! You are absolutely right,...something like specular maps is a must. 
But if one way doesn't work, and another one does, you can choose the way that 
works or the one that does not. :D 
I just say that because I doubt that this will be fixed in the near future. But 
nevertheless a sample-blend would be great as a startpoint for a developer to 
fix the issue.
