Question by funkyboy · May 16, 2013 at 10:20 AM · lightmap mirror deferred mirrorreflection

Sun rays don't show up in mirror reflection in deferred rendering ?

Hello,

i'm using the mirror script by Aras from the wiki and my scene is in deferred rendered mode with lightmapping.
and there's no sun rays in the mirror reflection ...

see this screen alt text

but it's working in forward rendering alt text

there's a line in the script that says " // Optionally disable pixel lights for reflection" right below there's a pixelLightCount value ... but changing that value didn't changed anything (so i guess it does'nt have anything to do with it^^)

is there any way to make it happen ? is that even possible ?
mirror reflection already increase a lot the draw calls ... i imagine that a feature like it will dramatically increase it more
i mostly want to understand where the problem is before all
and any idea of a workearound solution is welcome :)

thkx !

edit : just saw that question ... same issue in fact ...
my scene is lightmapped, could be a bit different

if a moderator can quickly resolve this please close the question

Hey, did you ever find a solution for this? I have the same problem and I HAVE TO use Deferred Lighting. Would be great if you answer :)

hi man,nope... no solution so far ... in the other topic, one guy said something like that : "... use the inverse projection-matrix for depth-reconstruction..." but that's way to complicated for me

Well, I also saw this question. I will ask him how this works. $$anonymous$$aybe I'll find a solution. If yes, I'll let you know.
