I've a problem making a model with anim8or my texture looks very dark and lack shiness. How do i set the material parameters to make like it steel metal? Like a car for example.

I guess specular highlights would be the thing to go for partly. The RTT tutorial/example shows you how to turn those on.

Got the metal look but still so dark...

This is my light setup:

Code: Select all

  ILightSceneNode* light1 = scenedriver->addLightSceneNode(   
      0, 
      core::vector3df(0,400,-200), 
      video::SColorf(1,1,1,1),
      1.0f, 
      1
   );
	videodriver->setAmbientLight(video::SColorf(1,1,1,1));

Did i make somethin wrong?

ambient light must be set in the scene manager, the video driver method is for internal engine purposes only!
