Is there any way at all to do cube mapping in DBC? Or, is that totally out of the question?

UV mapping? It might be possible with Memblocks, but it would be very hard, and I don't know how to do it.

Thats Box Mapping . Cube Mapping is an effect created on an object to make it look like it has reflective properties, like a shiny car. I remember seeing something in one of the Newsletters about someone making a poor man's cube map without any .fx files or shader commands, might want to look there.

Oh..That's easy! You just make 2 models, one larger than the other, and then texture the larger model with the reflection, and then ghost it. I do that in my greyhound racing game for the glass effect. Then when you move the camera around, you scroll the texture on the larger model.
