fire Reflect
As u see below- The fire is not reflected on that blue surface (actually its an oil burner that candle supposed to be in side it) . How can I make it reflected on surfaces???
And another question does anybody has idea how to make the candle texture more realistic?
I know its not a good work but Im only beginner.
Thanx.

I've been having diffcult time with a cadlelight I am trying to do for a project. I've learned from observing actual candles that their flames have a particular form and color. The fire in your candle looks as if there's wind blowing it... I don't know if that's what you meant... otherwise, try modeling you fire in the shape of a water drop and add some glow to it... use some blue color at the bottom of the flame...
You should render with raytracing on and make the material of the blue surface to have some reflectiveness (use a blinn or phong texture, maybe, not Lambert...)
I am a begginner also, so don't take my words as completely correct!!
And sorry for my english...Remember: it's from obeserving things in real life that we learn how to represent it...
Best regards
Daniel

This would be my approach too.Originally posted by slickrenderer
What I do sometimes is put a small orange/yellowish light inside the flame. This then shows up on the adjacent surface.
