Fake reflections/reflection maps

SteveM17

I saw some shaders somewhere, that were metal with fake reflectioons (I assume to cut down on rendering time). How do I add fake reflections to something (is it with reflection maps?)

Any shader or shader preset that used fake reflections where probably for 3Delight render engine (or Poser if they where very old).

Some 3DL products had specific material settings with and without forced reflections, or added reflections. The base is usually just a square bitmap, so it could be recycled into any reflection map slot. Some examples of 3DL shader presets with the choice of forced or raytrace reflections are Advanced Metal Shaders , or Real Metals for DAZ Studio.
