Nested reflections

[fsmorygo]

I have created a scene with two mirrors reflection one each other. I want to control how much times is reflection calculated to see the reflection in reflection. Is this possible via ReflectionTexture? Or ReflextionProbe?

I see that reflection probes seem to be working in this case. How can I set them up for a plane to become a mirror just like in the MirrorTexture?

For plane to use Reflection probes, you need to turn on local cubemaps: http://doc.babylonjs.com/how_to/reflect#using-local-cubemap-mode

@Deltakosh Now I see. It became much better however I still get the perspective distortion (which seems obvious because the cubemap is built by looking from one point).

Is there a way to make the same using mirrors or maybe there is another hack? The usecase is being inside of a mirror box.

 

Edit:

I think I've found a solution. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I should emulate the reflection by placing a probe not on the plane but behind it depending on the position of the camera.

So if a reflective plane is a 1x1 plane with center at (0,0,0) having normal (0,0,-1) and camera is at (x, y, z) then the reflection probe location should be set to (-x, y, -z)

Edit 2:

This does not seem to work. (http://playground.babylonjs.com/#GYPUMJ#2)

Edit 3:

Now it's getting somewhere: http://playground.babylonjs.com/#GYPUMJ#3

But the second reflection in wrong because it is captured considering the camera position and in the mirror the position. I will try using different mesh with layerMask for the reflections. Thx for tips

look like you are on the right track

@Deltakosh by the way what is supposed to be rendered within a MirrorTexture in the MirrorTexture?. I see some artifacts (random scene meshes and scene's `clearColor`)and this looks like a bug. Or am I missing something?

You will see the previous frame content off the reflected MirrorTexture
