material problem

[paulo silva]

hi, i´m having one small problem with a material that is supposed to look like Aluminium, i´m using vray sun+sky, with vray camera, and the problem is that the material is in the wall bettween the windows looks ok, but the same material at the windows looks to flat , any idea?
kind regards

well...as all reflective surfaces its look is going to depend on the reflections.
so u should make sure all the aluminium surfaces are reflecting some environment

hi , but hi the diference , if the material is the same? do you have look at the picture, the midlle wall and the windows frame hve the same material but they look diferent any idea?

[ene.xis]

well... i can only guess now...but have u checked the smothing groups, or is the reflected environment in the midle visible/reflectable on the sides?

pt:
se precisares adiciona-me no msn

Guessing from the Pic i'd say the difference is because the windowframes are reflecting the wall next to it, not the environment.
