I am just now bestowing upon myself, the virtues of the 68030 card and having a great deal of fun with Silver. After playing endlessly with various indexes of refraction, I have managed to actually create spheres that look like glass. Unfortunately, I cannot make my other problem go away. That is, I cannot get spheres which are above, below, or to one side of the camera, to look ROUND. They always come out looking like eggs, oblong, and not terribly round. I have tried to make sense of the manual to this end, but alas, nothing I have tried seems to work. I would be ever so greatful if you could point me in the right direction.
