How it works...
Like the 3dObject.py example, we define the DISPLAY shader (this time using uv_reflect) and some additional textures—bumptex (floor_nm.jpg) and shinetex (stars.jpg)—to use later. We define a model that we want to import, placing it at z=10 (if no coordinates are given, it will be placed at (0,0,0)). Since we do not specify a camera position, the default will place it within the view (see the section regarding the camera for more details).
We apply the shader using the set_shader() function. Next, we add some textures and effects using bumptex as a surface texture (scaled by 4). We apply an extra shiny effect using shinetex and apply a reflection strength of 0.5 (the strength ranges from 0.0, the weakest, to 1.0, the strongest) ...
