Reflective surfaces

[JavaGuy]

Anybody know how to do a surface like the floor of duel bay? It looks like there's just a thin glass brush over the floor brush, but I can't seem to get that cool reflective effect. I tried the portal surface entity, but I obviously got it wrong because what I found myself looking at made me think I was going to have a siezure.

ok first off take that glass off. then make a calk brush that will be your floor than cover the top with mirror_floor2 from the tests texture set. then take a misc_portal surface and stuck it above the floor.

 

be careful with this effect though cause it doubles the fps of your room. (looks sweet though:D)

Excellent!

 

I wanted to use my own floor graphic for the texture, so I dug into the shader script you pointed out and threw in my own texture.
