Glossy Plastic material problem

Can anyone advise me on how to set up a nice glossy plastic material. I’m trying to get some nice white highlights on the plastic object I’ve modelled. I tried the Blur Studio plugins but they don’t work on Max 6. :frowning:

Hope you can help.

You might want to try unchecking ‘trace reflections’ on your plastic material. This way you can still have glossiness and highlights without the reflections.

had a play with some standard mats with a vray map in the reflection slot and a little falloff.

Hey Guys!

Sorry about the delay in replying - I’ve been without an internet connection for a few days. Back on line now.

Thanks for your help. Natty’s model helped me sort it out, which means I have a happy client!

Cheers

the three shadow makes really interesting the image for me.

Hey Natty,

I couldnt open the file .. it seems as if theres a problem with it..is it max6?

Is there any other way of getting the materials in this file??

Thanx..

yeah its max6… just try a little faloff in the reflection slot. :wink: or use a standard mat with a vray map in the reflection slot
