Just a few questions that I've been having a need to be answered. If anyone can
help me out.....?
Something that I've never liked about my renders in POV-Ray is that the bricks
are way too reflective. Sometimes they're as reflective as the mirrored floor
I've put in it. How do I fix this?

scene?
Lastly, how do I make the tires look more like rubber than another plastic
brick?

Like this: (URL) for example (I think I can still (...) (17 years ago, 12-May-08, to lugnet.cad.ray)

| Thanks, guys, for the quick responses. The color 256 in MLCad advice works great. As for the suggestion regarding the "finish { reflection {0.0} ambient 0.5 diffuse 1 } line, where would I insert it in the POV-ray code? I've been learning somethings (...)
