reflection/chrome

Hi!

Could someone make a tutorial on zmod on how to make this?

Cya

materials editor - select the material you wanna make reflected - textures editor - secondary slot - add the ref map, then go to "edit" and "simple mode", change "mix with previouse" to "low-level additive" and "Manual UV1" ro "Auto-sphere environment"
thats it

And when exporting add a [env:#] with a number (#) higher then 20 if you wanna get a greate level of shiny, obtaining a more realistic chrome effect.

couldnt you add [spec] to?

Specular doesn't look good, basicly looks cheap, most of the time so I don't like using it.

I add both,and specular is always required to make the objects brighter,env is only for reflections,if you use a strong reflection map only use values between 4 - 10,,and spec is always 80 at me.

PS: how to fix this:

I see it´s to much chrome...
well, it´s very easy to fix

You got the material name of the chrome right..?
This is an example how to fix your chrome:

ChromeMaterial [env:2]

Env makes it possible to to decide how strong you want your chrome to be. in my eyes 2 or 3 looks best.

I am sorry, but i can not explain better for you.. anyway i hope it will help you

I figured that on my own but thanks for helping
