    We'd like to do this, but it's very very technically challenging. We don't even have dynamic reflections working yet (those are a headache all their own) and when we do, they wouldn't work well for mirrors. Mirrors would require some kind of camera system that would output a dynamic material.

    Which would mean to be a huge performance eater, isn't it?....

    It's depends really on Torque3d's ability to run dynamic materials, but no it really shouldn't.
