JD Mather Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Is this when you run Render - or just what you normally see on screen? Have you added/edited any lighting? Is your graphics card/driver supported? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likeag6 Posted November 22, 2010 Author Share Posted November 22, 2010 it only happens when I render. I have put lights on it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD Mather Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 ... I have put lights on it.. Looks like you need to adjust the user-added lighting. Can be maddening. Maybe someone here will suggest a source of information on proper lighting techniques. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cad64 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 That's because your background is white. Chrome is highly reflective, just like a mirror, so it's going to reflect it's environment. Change your background color or place some objects next to the chair and you will see their reflection in the chrome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
