When creating reflective textures, what is the optimal (best) alpha channel value to use? I want something that provides a good reflection, but without over doing it.

And, on what scale is that value based, is the value 255 the highest reflection value or the lowest?

255 is solid - no reflection

0 is full chrome/reflection

Typically, I've seen folks suggesting a start about 235 and going up or down from there.
