Couldn't possibly be me now could it??? I am using jen's free reflective floor wich should work on it's own. I tried using the tut at daz for reflection (the settings from the tut and the settings on her floor were the same sooo) but render as I might in P6 there is nooo reflection!! What on earth am I doing wrong lol I followed everything to a tee then tried changing things here and there and still nooo reflection. Any tips? Tia

what are your render settings? this got me for ages. don't use automatic. go for manual and check raytracing

I believe I did check it in manual, but I'll be going back and checking again lol. Hope that's all it is! Thanks for the tip. :)

Make sure you have enough "bounces" setup in the ray tracing option or you'll still never see any reflections! Light has to bounce from the figure to be reflected to the object doing the reflections back to the camera so a minimum of 3 bounces are needed for reflections.

"It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
