    Default Re: New Chrome-Effects with ReflectionMaps

    Thx Ross, nice Effect, how come you on this idea?

    I have played with the Effect and have it modified with a BumpMap-Layer, really good Idea from you!

    TIF info from the chrome plugin reflection maps:

    • 72dpi (but it works with 96, it's just a Mac/PC thing)
    • keep it small, 100px square is more than ample
    • 24-bit colour
    • no compression

    If someone tried to make me dig my own grave I would say No.
    They're going to kill me anyway and I'd love to die the way I lived:

    Smile Re: New Chrome-Effects with ReflectionMaps

    This is great, thank you guys for posting. I've been poking around for ages looking for a way to change the default chrome images, you'd think there would be an option within the plugin to do this.

    You've helped me get closer to the effect I'm trying to get on speaker cones...
