put it on a plain and turn culling off and spin it around 180

Instant "reverse"

So render the cam to a plane? I guess that will do, but why is it backward to begin with? If this dbSetCameraView show a camera that is looking at me or actually just past my , why would it be reverenced??


Ok this is pissing me off...


I can change dbRotateObject( cam1, 0,180,0); to dbRotateObject( cam1, 0,0,0); or rem it out and the plane shows the same image, what gives???

Ok you're right, I was a bit backwards my self there. So any ideas how to make a mirror, since the flipping of the object with a mirror to image failed? Is there a way to invert the camera? Like using the pov in the negative?

LOL.... (You're a sport)... What do you mean flipping it failed? Invisible? Set Cull to Off for that "plain"

[edit](pov in negative might just work.. report back on that please!)

Ya Working on 4 dark projects is not a good thing... Sorta leaves you with the feeling of walking in to the broad side of a bus on a cold day in Main with you birthday suit soaking wet...


I may try the POV, trick

Ya I set the cull flag to 0. It worked but still the cam is not inverted.

update
___________
dbSetCameraFOV (1, -90) ; // inverted the y as if your upside down. I guess since you cant do x with out y

Hey Jason, Have you made a mirror? Dont get me wrong its a neat thought. And should absolutely work...But not have much luck here.
