Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.

Please describe the patch or change you made. New PC. I think it is GPU related (Radeon RX 6800 XT)
I have send ticket to AMD too. This "reflection bug" only happens with Sims. So I hope you guys can help me.

Re: [WORKAROUND] Reflections show backwards in mirrors (Radeon RX 6000 Series)
I can confirm this issue is fixed with the Adrenalin 22.7.1 Optional driver from 7/26/22 on a Windows 11 machine with a RX 6700 XT.
My installed driver before this was from 4/28/22 and the problem was still there post-patch, even with a clean Sims 4 folder.
Not a great screenshot, but this shows the issue is fixed:
I cannot believe AMD fixed this! I am so happy (I seriously teared up, that's how happy I am)!
Tagging @WolvesCreek to let them know to try the newest optional driver, since they didn't think this would ever be fixed. And @animus_belli and also @skyemuu, because I think they will also be super happy!
Thank you @ADimGaR for the heads up!

@Sillyville14: I have an AMD Radeon (TM) RX 580, and I tested this yesterday (1.70 unpatched) and moments ago (1.71 patched). I couldn't duplicate this problem.
I've uploaded two pics (first is yesterday, second is today; there's no statue in the first pic but that shouldn't make any difference, hopefully), and my DxDiag.txt.
Can you post a DxDiag.txt of your own? Also, what is the version number of your driver compared with mine in "Display Devices"?
I'm having the same mirror issue, and I'm also running an AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT. I didn't have this issue when I had a NVIDIA 1080 in my build. My game and graphics drivers are up to date. I've attached a screenshot of what's happening in my saves.
My drivers are 21.2.2. DxDiag attached
@Sillyville14 : The driver version in the DXDiag is 27.20.14535.1000. The 21.2.2 would be your Adrenaline Experience software, right?
My DxDiag driver version is 27.20.14501.18003, and my Adrenaline 2020 Experience version is 20.11.2; the latter is the recommended version for me, as per this screenshot of the installer choices that I attached.
