Hy all!
I hope you don't mind if I ask you few questions here. If I will have any Q in future, I will write it in this thread. And sorry if it was answered many times before.

ok, first thing: How do you make reflections? For example, you have a sword, aand you want it's blade to reflect the area around it?

And tnx!

For a quick, accurate, and easy reflection, check out: www.pixho.com for his AWSOME script called GIJoe.
