If anyone could help that would be great!<BR /> <BR /> Claire</T></DIV> Thu, 11 May 2023 10:51:55 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Visualization/lighting-reflections/m-p/39536#M17414 Anonymous 2023-05-11T10:51:55Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Visualization/lighting-reflections/m-p/39537#M17415 Try with glass meaterial Sun, 29 Apr 2007 08:21:03 GMT https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Visualization/lighting-reflections/m-p/39537#M17415 Anonymous 2007-04-29T08:21:03Z https://community.graphisoft.com/t5/Visualization/lighting-reflections/m-p/39538#M17416 You may want to make a new glass material or a new water material and edit some of the settings. For a good effect, make the material both very reflective AND very transparent. In real life we don't think that these two qualities work together in one material, but in Lightworks, they do!<BR /> Good luck! Oh, and it's always a great idea to get Dwight Atkinson's book if you are doing any moderate to serious renderings (which it sounds like you are.)
