With the current reflection property when you set a part to have a reflection it reflects the sky. It would be a lot cooler and better looking if the pieces would reflect what is actually in front of the piece. This would make for better looking and realistic mirrors in houses, vehicle mirrors, etc. If the reflections were to do this it would make Roblox look so much better.

Cool, then ROBLOX would be more HD. Noiiiiiice!! I wonder if we can also have character body parts have a little 'shiney' effect on them. Like gold or something.

Don't see the negative side in this, it'll be more realistic if this was implemented. I don't support a lot of ideas, but I suppose I'll support this one.

i'm not a scripter, but i feel like that would cause a lot of lag. plus, there is probably a reason roblox hasn't done it. i liked it better when they were just shiny rather than reflecting the skybox.

Roblox would of done this by now if their client was capable of handling it.

@ Infinitelyhannah and Tuneable I see how you're thinking that. I thought it too, but with Roblox's recent partnership with Microsoft and Mojang I believe the Roblox community could see some major changes in graphics and game handling. This could possibly lead to this if they were to make their domain better and able to handle this.

Lol I suggested this 2 years ago and everybody was telling me it was a dumb and realistic idea. Look now. Majority supports. Support.

I want this, I really do. But it won't be possible. Making mirrors in video games is very very hard. The thing about putting a mirror in roblox is that it has to redraw EVERYTHING. It has to double the polygons, shadows, and everything else. This would be a major performance hog. This is even worse considering this game is online. No support.
