Testing

Dynamic Cubemaps

There is a special test mode that can be activated to turn basically any cubemap surface into a maximum reflective surface. Examples are potions or wine bottles.

1. Under Advanced -> Shader Defines, enter TESTCUBEMAP.
2. Clear Disk Cache, if disk cache enabled.
3. Clear Shader Cache.
4. Examine an object and the environment should be reflected in the item.
