I've been having some problems with non-flat auto reflection mapping lately. I've got a scene I've been working on since r2 – there's a cup (sides are straight up and down) that's got an auto reflect map set at about 50%. It used to reflect and it seems like it just kinda quit. No matter what I do I cannot get it to reflect anything. I've tried creating a new cup object in r3, adjusting the lights, adjusting the camera, adjusting the material and it refuses to reflect anything. I've made a .cub and it is blank also. I've also got three droplets of water that are also supposed to reflect but they refuse too. The counter top is a flat mirror and it reflects perfectly. Any ideas? I know it can be difficult with no file to examine but this is just so weird I thought someone may have an idea… Dave Mennenoh
