[OPEN] Walls disappearing / Clipping in mirror reflection

[Simming_Spoonie]

They almost work properly, I have this weird clipping if any windows are reflected though.

@Simming_Spoonie Yup, same with doors. Fingers crossed for a patch soon.

@hamchee92 Me too! Must confess, I really liked it back when mirrors reflected the room, windows, doorways, (and any rooms through open doorways), walls and artwork in wall cutaway view, as though walls were up, before the 9/3 patch. It just made it so much more 3-dimensional and alive.

@stjmk Hopefully I'm not misinterpreting, but the mirrors actually do reflect the room in full cutaway view, oddly enough. It's when the walls are up that you run into rendering bugs. Bad news for those of us who use the cinematic camera for stuff like machinimas and house tours.

Not sure how this repair problem was missed except that no one tested in game after repairing the walls. Are we the beta testers now? Not cool considering the amount for packs.

[stjmk]

@hamchee92 It seems that the walls have to be completely down, or as you put it, full cutaway, for the mirrors to act right. In normal cutaway, the usual mode in which you play, the mirrors are not reflecting what you would expect to see. Evidently, they did try to correct it, but, they seem to have forgotten how it was before the 9/3 patch.

[hamchee92]

@stjmk I see, sorry for the confusion. Can you recall if mirrors reflected walls, windows, etc with the walls completely down before the 9/3 patch?

[stjmk]

@hamchee92 I think so. At least, I don't remember it being different from the wall-cutaway view reflection.

This is so weird  I mean, they had to look directly into the mirror to check if their fix for the windows relection worked, right? How could they not notice that the walls were missing instead......??

I have the same problem.
