Hi Danny, well I was just doing some quick experimenting with some different things I can do now with the new lighting mechanism, and I just kind of happened to find that metallic look is easy for me to do now with it.

I actually tweaked just one line of code to get it, I was just thinking hmm I wonder what will happen if I do this instead and out popped that look.

So yes, I think unless something goes unexpectedly wrong I'll be able to include it as an option in v2.

This technique should work fine with old cards too, all the way back to the first GeForce or Radeon cards. I just did a quick test on an old GeForce2 and a Radeon 7500 and it is looking good there...
