I'm still skimming the thread, and been skimming faster lately as there has been a mass of posts that are not Reality related!

There was some mention of chrome earlier, and a comment was made about metals appearing black with high polish. Although I am still using reality 1.25 and daz3 at the moment, I have found that if the polish is set to 10,000 then the material will be black. If you set it to 9999 it gives the high reflection. I do not know if this is still the case in later versions of reality tho... this old image had the gold polish set to 9990... (The details of the material settings can be found in the links)

For the chrome on a car or lorry, I just set the material to the mirror material, which seems the easiest thing to do... This was may re-render of the 'Prince' car, with the chrome items all set to be 'mirror'... http://fav.me/d5dirya

P.S. has anyone got any results yet from Paolo's challange? I just downloaded the items, but still have a large number of messages to catch up with! `¬)

 

P.P.S.

Does anyone know how to get an image to open full size when clicked on? The images above are way smaller than the actual size, and it would be nice to know how to get the click on them to open the full size like other images here... `¬) ...HANG ON think I got it sorted now! ;)
