I have found that the normal DTS exporter that comes with the engine doesn't seem to export the reflection material settings.

I had to use Dark Industries dts exporter to get enviro mapping to work.

It will not work in TGE.. prefs.cs $pref::environmentMaps = "1"; is what I have that should work right.. and it does work in ShowTool..
