Reflection/Cubemap issue

OBlastradiusO

Can anyone tell me how to plug in a Reflection/Cubemap parameter inside my Master material? I beleive this must be plugged into the Diffuse box somehow but have no clue how to do it. I tried looking at Reflection/Cubemap setup tutorials but it seems to turn my scene very dark. Any help would be appreciative.

reflection maps are usually added to the diffuse. However the blend mode used can vary depending on the effect you wish to achieve.

here's a basic implementation of a cubemap

Yeah but every time I use multiply or add node to support the reflection vector my textures become dark.

Show us how you're trying to hook it up.

The most basic implementation would be
(Reflection Vector > Vector Transform > Cubemap) + Diffuse
