I know I'm being dense, but how do I go about turning mirrors on in first look? I've looked through preferences and CTRL-ALT-D Clietnt->Rending->types etc, and can't see anything to do with mirrors.
My graphics card is a NIVIDIA GeForce FX 5200.
Thanks,
Vale

I asked this same thing recently in the "How Mirrors work" thread. nand Nerd very kinly answered: From: nand Nerd With the debug menu shown (CTRL-ALT-SHIFT-D if not) hit Client > Debug Settings then type RenderDynamicReflections (should autocomplete after you've typed renderdyn) change the False to a True and you should have this (somewhat less impressive) dynamic reflection.

Thanks for the help. Tried it, SL crashes everytime  Guess I need to start saving up for a better 3D card. Vale |

Seems to work on my video card and i'm using a Radeon X1900XT one of the high end cards that has a bit better support for OpenGL, however i'm not sure if anyone has figured out how to use this "mirror" effect on an object yet, I don't think you can enable it just by turning on shiny to "high".
In other words I haven't seen it used.

With my Geforce 6200XT 256MB when i enable dynamic reflections, it only turns off all shiny... Then after i disable it i get a few seconds of mirrors then it goes back to normal shiny. I've tried everything on my end to fix it, including driver updates... The same thing happens on my other computer as well and it uses a geforce 5200FX 128MB.

Nice!
You can't see your face but you can certainly see the reflections of objects in the room. Like burnished metal.
