Reflective Surfaces

[Surman]

I'm sure everyones seen the awesome mirror effect in the new duel level that came with the latest patch. My question is how can I get the same effect in my death star level?

 

Can someone please explain, I've been trying to get it to work but it won't.

I too am in need of a way to make a reflective surface, not like a mirror but rather like a marble floor or the like.

just use the shader mirror_floor2 or your floor and place a misc_portal_surface entity less then 64 units above it. this creates a mirror which gives you the same effect as in the duel level.

Thanks, got it working now.

where is the mirror_2 shader? I';ve looked and looked but no luck. In the system texture, I've found a mirror1 and qermirror2...but these don't work.

 

Thanx

EDIT: n/m I found it in the common2 directory.

Well what I found wasn't the mirror_2 shader...it was a mirror2 shader that didn't work.

 

I loaded all the texture sets and did a search with subset turned on, and 6 or 7 mirror shaders showed up (never found mirror_2) but the only one I could get to work was mirror_yavin. It looks black from far away, and only seems to show reflections when you are close to it. If I stand on the surface and jump up, the reflection slowly fades to black by the time I get oh about 128 units away from it.

 

Any help you guys could provide would be appreciated!
