Eye reflections

BaNaNaSpliTTer

Eternal gratefullness=answer to my query. A screenshot of the material setup needed to recreate the "window in the eye" reflection...that stays in place even when the eye rotates.
I have the "eye bubble" NM+Inverted Heightmap simulating the weird refraction warping thing a majig "above and beyond my level of understanding" setup.

I am using a single sphere only...this time.

Thanks in advance.






This is an ideal end result scenario.

Take a cubemap. For its texture coordinates, use reflection vector-> vector transform (tangent to world) and plug this to the emissive. You can control the visibility of the cubemap with multiplying a value to it.

Plus here is a fake hdr that you can use to enhance the bright areas:

Hey, thanks for the response...any help at this point is encouraged.

I have followed the udk basic shader setup by MM """"VERTEX"""" which includes the reflection vector-> vector transform you refer to.

""""I will try the cubemap setup in this way...then report for more advice""""

Hopefully I dont need to ask for more information...however welcomed it is.

I want the best result with the least work...not much to ask for ^^,

I came across that shader network thing before on the UDK site, didnt think it was the answer though ^^, Cheers.
