Mirror Script?

[Ryex]

IS it possible to make a script the duplacates a mirror? like you stand in frount of it and your reflection appears?

[Calintz]

I think that would be cool, but I think it's do-able...I'm not advanced enuff to try this, but I've seen this done in rivers and lakes in other ppls games, so I'd say it's possible...

[Blizzard]

I should actually be fairly simple. But the lag factor could be pretty high if not made well. It's a bit tricky to set up the viewpoint when I now think of it.

[Punn]

Look for Retaime's script, in his script bed, theres some. Unless you want me to post it..I do it later

[Blizzard]

Didn't he only have a water reflection script? O_o

[Punn]

Look alive.

[Nortos]

Water reflection script would be just alike mirrors practically but ripply

[Calintz]

Haha, that would be funny...
- But useful if you had a Nemesis like looking into his cauldron and seeing the hero or something...

Is there a way to:

1. add a reflection when you approach the event from the top? right now it only works if you're below it and walk "up" towards it.

2. add in additional characters in a catepillar script? right now I'm only seeing a reflection of the main character, even if i have 3 reflections side to side and walk from one end to the other

thx
