Im freakin out. I thought for sure I could make a 3d layer reflect other 3d layers in the scene. I know Ive done it before, but now... nothing! WTF??

3d layers > material options > shininess @ 100

this is ridiculous. i know its something simple. I feel like such a noob now... :shrug:

Thanks, Mylenium... That's an awesome tutorial! It's going to take me a few more times to remember it all, but my first attempt turned out good.
