Yes, HDRI was used. It is a shiny metal texture. Notice the
reflections of the probe in the rim? This was just a quick run with
low radiosity settings to see the result. There are many artifacts
though. I was mainly concerned with the CSG and a rough idea of how
the textures would look with radiosity. I figured I'd post it since
it came out ok.
Thanks,
Kyle

doesn't look like metal to me. You might want to decrease the diffuse
and/or ambient values.

Here's the texture I'm currently using:
#local RimChrome =
texture {
pigment { rgb 0.95 }
finish {
ambient 0
diffuse 0.7
specular 1
roughness 1/1500
metallic
brilliance 6
reflection { 0.8 metallic } }
}
The diffuse may be a little high, but I will revisit all of the
textures when I put the wheel to use in the final image. I think that
it doesn't look quite right in this image because of the radiosity
artifacts. You can see how bad the artifacts are if you look at the
black holes near the lower left side of the rim. This is a dark grey
texture with no pattern. Lots of obvious artifacts there. I'm sure
this is the case across the entire rim.
Thanks for the suggestions,
Kyle
