How to enable/disable planar reflection online?

by Nabarro · in Torque 3D Professional · 07/09/2010 (1:46 am) · 1 replies

As title, anyone have any methods for doing this? We want to put the planar reflection flag in setting option, and user can enable or disable this dynamically, anybody knows how to do this?

Or any resources can be referenced?

Thank you very much.

How did you get planar reflections to work? According to this thread planar reflections will come with the next release i hope.

As for disabling/enabling planar reflections, my suggestion would be to swap between a non-reflecting and reflecting mesh. Not sure if there is any other way tho at least not without a little hax.

EDIT: Oh, when come to think of it, you can also use the material swap resource for T3D. Where one material has reflections and the other doesn't have.
