I have just bought High Fantacy Props @ $9.95. It said on the box that they are all highly detailed and with realistic chrome and gold reflections. Can anybody please tell why when I render the weapons they just come out looking like more or less white shapes..

    Did you apply the DS Material to them before rendering or are you rendering the default prop

    Frank there are no DS mats.

    That realistic claim may have been true at one point but for me I don't see them being realistic today.

    Anyways the culprit is the Reflection Map in the reflection colour channel in the Surfaces pane when the object is selected. As soon as I removed or reduced the reflection strength it the issse went away.

    You may also need to increase the Glossiness as it was set up for Poser.

    I set glossiness to 90% and removed the reflection map and set reflection to 0% for testing purposes.
