Reflection Maps

DigitalPictures

Is there a special material parameter that Spark uses to make reflection maps. Like for the windows of a building or reflective metal? I only know of the metal property and thin_metal property. I'm not talking about an actual mirror of the game environment, but a preset map that's essentially a picture of the environment uses that as the reflection.

There was a similar <a href="http://getsatisfaction.com/unknownworlds/topics/_engine_material_type_reflective_cube_map_sphere_map" target="_blank">Get Satisfaction post</a> on this as well.

The material "properties" only affect the way it behaves when you walk on it or

My bad, I meant something else. What I am referring to is the "map types" in the material files.

From What I know, there is:

<map type="texture"
<map type="bump"
<map type="opacity"
<map type="specular"


Is there a reflection map type name? I'm guessing <map type="reflection" ?
