Simplest chrome of all

The easiest chrome uses a canned Max material. It does not actually reflect the scene elements. It uses Lakerem.jpg as a reflection image; it is rather softened, so you cannot see the image clearly.

If you cannot find it (it should appear like below, not dull gray) then look for Lakedusk.jpg in background maps folder or do a search.

Or, if you still cannot find lakerem.jpg, use another background type image.

This is an anisotropic material. It does not use ray tracing, there is simply an environment image in the reflection slot.

This render uses the canned max scene lighting.

This shows the effect of casting a 1.0 spotlight on the model:
