Reflections

There was a resent discussion about mirror-like reflections in the sim, as we are only just starting to see 'real' reflections. Aerofly FS2 certainly does them well, here's most of the buildings in Christchurch reflected in my canopy... still with FS2's amazing frame rates.

Now - there's a great idea for a comp theme!!!

I think P3Dv4.1 does reflections quite well - not anywhere near as good as in your shot, though - I'll see if I can set up a comparison.

An extreme perspective Rob ...but amazing :clap:
Adam ... maybe not a good comp theme IMO ... takes a lot of system grunt to produce that stuff, and I'm not sure that many would have it, or more to the point, the sim to produce it ...maybe.
Just saying.

Wow extreme shot certainly... but of major interest that there are things to reflect over Christchurch in the first place! :clap:
In AFS2 I think that the Mudhen's rearview mirrors also reflect properly.
