Alan: Thanks for the quick response! The problem was solved by using standard automatic reflection map. I managed to do the mirroring by face level now, but had quiet a while experimenting with the faces and normal-fliping. I import ACAD DXF in 3DS and it seems that normal 2-sided materials work always well (for lazy people who don't want to flip hundreds of faces), but the flat mirror seems to be always just on one side ?! As I said, I'm just starting to use 3DS, but instead of having the time for the tutorial, I already have to do some stills for an architectural competition ….which forces me to "learn" very quickly…. Thanks again………………………………….Alexander.
