OK, I feel I'm missing something really obvious here ... but I can't seem to make a simple mirror and render it in Superfly.

Do I NEED the Ultra Super Duper render option with caustics and stuff? It makes no sense. I can do shiny stuff .. just not a reflecting mirror, it seems.

Can someone please show me the materials for a mirror - in Superfly?

Use the Cycles Surface and plug a Glossy Bsdf into the Surface connection

Create a new PoserSurface root node, select the SuperFly Root checkbox, and set the Metallic value to 1. Adjust the roughness to 0 for pure shiny mirror. That's it. :)

Metallic 1, Roughness 0:

Metallic 1, Roughness 0.2:

This was with the default render settings.
