[Radiance-general] mirror material ignoring modifier in virtual source calculations

[Greg Ward]

Hi Rioboo,

It helps when you give a specific example.  What is your material definition, and what is it doing that disagrees with your expectations?

The mirror material will ignore its modifiers in the case when you have given an alternate material type.  This will be called instead when viewed directly.  The modifiers to the mirror itself will only be used for calculating the virtual source contributions.

Best,
-Greg

I've seen in recent post that there seems to be a bug with in the m_mirror routine and I wonder if that is the problem or if it could be something else.
