Maybe fresnel will help? Have you already tried lowering the exponent of the material?

yes it is around 40 already. in case i lower it more the specular reflection will overlap my brush map.

how do you setup SSS and so with your exporter??? i used blendigo sofar.

How about adding an object to the scene, a cube or plane (or even a sphere), right above the faucet so the camera does not catch it. Place it between the top of the faucet area and the the light causing the problem.

Size it and see how it shows up in the faucet reflection.

Bad idea?

and inside xml there is no camera tag.. i'm using Blender 2.43 and i am getting the same result with all exporter versions i have collected..

could you publish striped down blend file?

carbon · Post by **carbon** » Sat Mar 17, 2007 11:12 am

it makes every blend file ive tried.. even default scene

carbon · Post by **carbon** » Sat Mar 17, 2007 11:25 am

this:
import Blender
from Blender import Scene
currentscene = Scene.GetCurrent()
camObj = currentscene.getCurrentCamera()
print camObj

returns: None

i dont know if there isnt any mistake, im no python coder, got only really basic knowledge of py

Fip: Defining materials in this exporter is confusing. The directions are at the front page. Good to hear your faucet is looking good.

Carbon: I do not know why this does not work. Maybe it has something to do with Python 2.3? Can you use the latest 2.4 Python version?

carbon · Post by **carbon** » Sat Mar 17, 2007 9:10 pm

i don't think that this is the problem, the same script used to work couple days ago

I wonder what this mean. I don't know what it is and what is wrong. I looked into the xml file and it said:

<model>
<pos>7.6413 -9.5215 3.1765</pos>
<scale>0.0452</scale>
<rotation>
<matrix>
0.763570 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 0.763570 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000 1.472860
</matrix>
</rotation>
<mesh_name>Cylinder</mesh_name>
</model>

Edit: I have found out wich object it is that causes the trouble. But how it creates the problem I don't understand.

Select all your objects in blender and hit Ctrl+A then export....might need to re-tweak some scalings.

Thank you so much for your help. it works now. There is so much I don't know and I am still learning.
