You got me. We pulled a few tricks on PCACITY because we didn't have enough RAM to render the 2Kx2K image with all those flat-mirror reflection maps. It would've taken up something like 120 Megabytes of flat mirrors to do all the surfaces we needed. Yeesh. You'll see that the images we DID use for the reflections actually work quite well… even in animation. You'll see this when you eventually get a chance to look at the R2 launch video. – G
