Hi Wil
There used to be a Prop for iClone 5 (mirrorplain) that also works in iClone6.

Mirroplain

Give it a try.

So? Any other solution out there since last year (except rotating everything by 90 degrees, but water) ?

SO PLEEEEEEEEASE SHOW ME!!! I'm too simple to understand. Do you even have a recent copy of iClone swope?

iClone "Reflection" does not work correctly on a flat plane! The reflection is "enlarged and pixilated". Only "Water" works "somewhat" correctly but it cannot be rotated perpendicular to the ground.

At this point in time only a "curved" prop can create a "kinda" useable reflection surface.

PLEASE prove me wrong!!!!;)

You are welcome. Glad I could help. Better in iClone 5 than in neither. :D

Thanks, Schemer! I love the mirror prop (see attached). The only negative thing, I have to say about it, is that it doesn't reflect shadows (also, too bad it doesn't work in 6, but I'm using 5 anyway).

I think it's one of the most ignored feature requests...:crying:

It's not for lack of trying...:P

Ok thank you for the detailed instructions but it is not really what I am after as you have said you need to create a video and then reverse it so that you have 2 movements going on at the same time.
What I am after in Icone 6 is a proper functioning mirror as used in Iclone 5 and hopefully Realussion will include this in an update.
Come on people in Iclone 6 - You Can Do It !!!

As you know mirrors don't work in iClone6. Mark has made a good tute.:):):)
I'll try to explain (in my best Dutch-English) how to make a substitute mirror.

-Launch iClone5 (32bit)
-Hide grid (Ctrl+g)
-Disable shadow
-add Gwynn
-add motion "posing in front of mirror" (=511 frames)
-export the popVideo
-select in modify panel:
.iClone popVideo
.video quality:8
.outputsize 500x1000
.framerate=30
.outputrange: 1-511 (=motion lenght)
-Save the popVideo on your disk

-Launch iClone6
-add Gwynn
-add motion "posing in front of mirror" (in frame 1)
-add a Mirror (I took the one of Granny J-Mirror ornate gold)
- I scaled the mirror to :X=100 Y=182,8 Z=241
-import the popVideo in frame 1(find file on your disk and drag with Ctrl in iClone)
-turn the popVideo 180 degr. (Z=180)
-scale the popVideo as needed (I scaled in this case to 65%)
-place the popvideo just behind the mirror
-add Box01 (prop). I scaled it X=143 Y=3,7 Z=220,2
-add the material Glass02 on this box
-place the box behind the mirror and the popVideo
-copy Box01, remove textures and set diffuse and ambient color to RGB 100-100-100
-place this box after the first box

Now it should work.

This is an example, you can do it as you want.

Best Regards,
Arie
