2 options (apart from Todd's suggestion):
1. Turn the QUAL value to 1 (first uncommented line on any L3P-generated file)
QUAL 2 simply(?) *adds reflections* to parts, while QUAL 3 adds reflections and
Lego logos to their studs
2. Look in the color definition block. Each color looks something similar to
this:
#ifndef (Color7)
#declare Color7 = #if (version >= 3.1) material { #end texture {
pigment { rgb <0.682353,0.682353,0.682353> }
finish { ambient AMB diffuse DIF }
#if (QUAL > 1)
finish { phong 0.5 phong_size 40 reflection 0.08 }
#if (BUMPS) normal { BUMPNORMAL } #end
#end
} #if (version >= 3.1) } #end
#end
Simply get rid of the *reflection* setting. The advantage is that this way you
can have some shiny and some matt surrfaces.
PS: Since most likely you're going to be #including this file ;-) take into
account that each #include file can have it's own QUAL setting.

| Hello all, It's 12:32am right this minute, so this is going to be very short. My bedtime was a looong time ago. But the last thirty minutes have been well-spent: I've redesigned an MLCAD scene and it looks much, much better. Except for one thing. It (...) (21 years ago, 28-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
