Photoworks problem

[Mitsu50]

Hi all,

I've hit a bump in 2008 where when i use a custom made material with a satin finish, and i select accurate reflections. some options that are in 2007 are no longer available. Specifically the ability to adjust difuse brightness and specularity. My material now is way to dark, and i cant brighten it up. If i adjust difuse and environment, all my other parts look bad. Is this a bug? or am i missing something. thanks in advance.

Any idea how to correctly map the cylinder area? I've tried a bunch of scenarios with mapping. Might i have to map it separatley from the top flange?

Yeah, I'd map it separately. Select the surface, then apply the texture with cylindrical mapping oriented properly.
