Mukai92 Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Hey guys, just wondering if its possible to get lower res mirrors or skybox mirrors like I've seen in a few youtube videos, such as this one I've noticed my FPS takes a huge hit with mirrors active (almost 1/2 my FPS in some cases :/ ) and the black bar is kinda annoying. Thanks! :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven (Elysian Angel) Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 In 1.5 the frame-rate drops in half yes with mirrors enabled. In 2.0+ the performance hit is hardly noticeable.

Mukai92 Posted August 21, 2017 Author Share Posted August 21, 2017 Yeah exactly, but in the video i posted shows that the mirror is in very low res/skybox mode, but I don't know how you do that? The only modes i seem to be able to have it high fidelity or a black screen (in some cases this reverts to a static image which is strange). The skybox version looks like it would be less jaring and have a small impact on frames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiddx Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 This video was made directly after early access release when the real mirror was not integrated yet. So the skybox was a placeholder. I don't think there is a way to get it back in the current model.

Dingo_Bob Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 (edited) editable in the mainpanel_init.lua here: Mods\aircraft\M-2000C\Cockpit last section is for the mirrors, (i haven't been able to make the whole mirror a blur, only been messing about for 30 minutes it's in there somewhere though) however if you change far_clip =60000; to something like 11 that example only 11 meteres behind the mirror will render (that's about 1 meter off the rear of tail / wingtips) the rest of the scenery is blurred / un-rendered another example near_clip=0.1 mid_clip=0.2 far_clip=0.3 only the top of the helmet is animated in the mirror but the horizon stays horizontal and blurred or try near_clip=10.02 mid_clip=10.021 far_clip=10.022 thats about as skybox as possible without anything being rendered (slight wingtip vortex sometimes) Edited August 23, 2017 by Dingo_Bob [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Modules are like Pokemon you gotta catch 'em all :joystick::lol::pilotfly: AMD Ryzen7 3700x, G-Skills 32Gb RAM @ 3200Mhz, MSI GTX1080Ti, TM Warthog (20cm extension by Sahaj), MFG Crosswind Pedals, Oculus Rift, Track Ir5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fri13 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I just so hope that mirrors would be more useful in VR to see better behind. And for 2D I would like to see a 2048px option so we could get 512/1024/2048 or something little better. And actually as on this thread request, a 256 or 128 options would be nice as well! i7-8700k, 32GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 2x 2080S SLI 8GB, Oculus Rift S. i7-8700k, 16GB 2666Mhz DDR4, 1080Ti 11GB, 27" 4K, 65" HDR 4K.
