Basically I need to render images of objects inside and outside of bubbles, I want to be able to tint the color of the bubble to match the object inside. What's the best way to do this in delgine? It's for a casual games I'm making.

Make a sphere, then copy it, and invert the normals on the new sphere. Then merge them. You now have a bubble.

You will need to make some kind of sphere map / cube map / shader fpr the reflection, and you can use the vertex colors for the tinting.

thanks, I ended up doing it in anim8or from a tutorial I found using Google.

It was only so I could cut a pre-rendered shot of it to use in a casual game. I'm writing a new game shortly that will need extensive use of Delgine, I'll post screenshots of that as I work on it.
