I have a mirror, working fine. Just seems a little soft and lighter...if that makes any sense. my reflect settings are: Background DarkGray Quality 0.2 Softness 0.0 Ray Bias: 1.0 Reflection Value: 5.0 Reflection_Color: WHITE

Increase the quality and decrease any Diffuse_Color you may have in there.

I tend to use quality at 1.0 on all reflective surfaces, even if they use softness, since it seems to make the reflection look more realistic, rather than full of odd artefacts.

Reflection value of 5.0 seems excessive, since it's 5 times more reflective than the most reflective surface in the universe, ever. BB will tell you there's no such thing as a perfect mirror, so bearing that in mind, I'd take that down to 0.98. Maybe set Background to Black, too.

Rendo Freebie from Richabri for Bunny Set. This terrific set contains a Mirror that in my humble opinion is the best reflector in the business. Hunt him down and check out the setting for the mirror. This is the ONLY reflector I use.
