Mirrors

Mirrors not working

Question Submitted By: Pierrik

my mirrors don't work
each time I use the system already explained but the reflection is bigger than normal and is reversed (the feet to the roof in the mirror reflection only)
it makes me this when i run the game from Embrace and I don't know how to correct that.

Mirrors can be very sensitive creatures, unfortunately... They like to be all by themselves in a sector, and not have to reflect any other mirror images... Sometimes to make them work, you also need to play with some of the other surface flags... although tecnically you only need nodraw and reflect to make a mirror, at times I have also had to add one of the Trans(33 or 66) and the two-sided flag.

Another factor that seems to mess with the correct display of mirrors is the light on or around it.

Basically, try playing with it, change some of the things that I mentioned, and if it still won't work properly for you, then let me know...
