Reflection Problems
« on: April 18, 2008, 05:52:33 am »
So heres the problem:
My object reflects other objects (it has the specular attribute (string: reflection)) but it won't reflect the cubemap in scene mode :-[ (Setting->Environment->Cubemap Texture)
Anyone have any ideas ???

I believe that is not able yet to reflect background maps with ART. Probably steve will fix this in the next release, till then you just should wait.

As floyd said, that's not possible yet (remember it's still a beta version.)  What I did for an environment in one of my projects, was that I created a sphere and gave it an environment map, then I resized it to a very large size in the scene, and used that as my environment.
