    Ok, I have another problem

    Hi, I want to be able to reflect the image below onto my crome arm and hand that is on this board. I assume the simplist thing is to use a rectangle and place the image as a texture on it.

    Ive tried to texture the plane, which is probably wrong, I know you have to scale the image but I cant get it right.

    Thanks

    Karl.

    It looks OK, But Im not sure the arm could reflect it so it was evident what it was anyway.

    Thanks for your help

    are you saying that the arm is not in Swift3D as well? You could always apply a reflective material to it, then reflect that bitmap in it.

    Not seeing your *.t3d, I assumed that the arm and logo were in the same file/environment.

    No, I mean that it is such a shape that the texture is dis-figured (right word?).

    Its sort of all over the place

    And I would post my .t3d file but its 9mb maybe because of the import stuff (arm from poser and logo)

    Dont worry, the reflection was just an idea

    Thanks,

    Here's what I got after playing around with it a little bit. It was somewhat difficult to get a good reflection on the arm since there is a lot of distortion due to the shape of the arm, but this might be close to what you are looking for.
