ok i played with it last night some...i made a nice reflective texture but i have a problem...in a solid room i placed the texture on a brush on the floor and wall...BUT....it reflects the sky....even with cubemaps...solid room...no sky...

2nd problem...same texture different room....i placed it on one wall and it reflects nicely but at to large of a scale....how do i scale down the reflection?

Did you put a cubemap in the room, and then use buildcubemaps?

...and then after building, reload the map, making sure sv_cheats set to 1?

Cubemaps use your skybox as a default before you build them.

You can't scale cubemap reflections. If the reflection is clear enough that you can easily see it's wrong, your surface needs to be less reflective.
