I've been reading the other help messages on mirrors and am still confounded. I am not that experienced with 3ds, by the way I use Version 3, I have been doing exactly what the messages say and I still cannot get a planar reflection, I can get spherical but not planar, I've even downloaded some 3ds projects dealing with the mirror problem and nothing, no reflect. if someone could help I would very much appreciate it Thanks, –Steve

There are four types of reflection maps available. They are Automatic, Cubic, Flat Mirror and Spherical. At times, reflection maps can produce some unexpected results when applied to models incorrectly. This document will discuss some common problems concerning reflection maps in 3D Studio.
