Question Objects: Creating a Mirror

Newbie to Lightwave

I have been unable to create a mirror to be used in a 'Room Scene' for my first 3D project.

Can anyone out there please explain to me how to make a believable mirror object?

Thank you for your assistance in this matter

Colin...

Don't know if you solved your problem about creating a mirrow? You might try going into the Surface Editor and put Diffuse at 0, Specularity at 0, Glossiness at 0, and Reflection as high as you want...100%, 200%, etc. Make sure you turn on Reflection in Render Options. Hope this helps? - jim
