Guys… Two of my objects are using PCACITY as a reflection map. I believe the other object is also metallic with a reflection map assigned. No automatic reflection, no ray traced shadows. I am using Highlite on two of the objects but only to get sparse highlights here and there. Maybe I do need to run some diagnostics but I have no way of doing so. All my maps are in my IMAGES or MAPS dir. Nothing is from my CD-ROM. Should I always turn cast shadows/receive shadows off if I don't need for them to be apparent in a scene?? Looking forward to even more input! Patrick Malone 70461,3646
