Alexander, I can't be certain about the type of object you are trying to apply an automatic reflection flat mirror material to, but these things should be noted: The flat mirror material must be assigned at the _face level_ to work correctly. The renderer will use the first face in the face list of the object to do the reflection and this cannot be consistently predicted. You must select a _single face_ or a selection set of _co-planer faces_ to apply the flat reflection map properly. You might try a cubic environment map to reflect off a complex, rounded object. Please see the reference manual starting on page 9-37 for more reflection map information. Hope this helps, Alan Iglesias
