suggestion
is there will be something like that, but for cubemaps? cubemap will track the player and rec everything around for example (npcs, props, players or map changes like stormfox 2 weather)

It seems to me that the user does not understand what a cubemap is). Just in case he's reading this: a cubemap is a small picture with 6 parts. Such a picture is compiled by the map developer and never changed again, this is just a very noticeable implementation of reflections, unlike the mirror surface that is used on this cube.

Please add this "material" to the mirror models of diffrent sizes if possible and upload as seperate addon with a name like "Mirror [entity]" or smth like this.:SBHorse:

hmm so what kind of cubemap water have?

Well, i'm appreciate effort that SaVav put into his addon, but this is the way diffrent. I'd say your reflections is more advanced and polished. I'm not excactly meant "models" as a reflective plates of diffrent sizes but rather as an actuall model of mirror with a rim and stuff. The main problem with SaVav mirrors is that it can't reflect players. It's just would be nice to have a mirror that you can: spawn, place, and admire yourself in. Camera kinda serve the same purpose but mirror would be something unique to have.

It's just my opinion of what people might like, especially if it would have wide array of diffrent models, like the mirror that you can place over your sink or in the wardrobe or just a small pocket mirror to render a cool scene. I wouldn't be offended if you just tottaly ignore my idea because you probably have more mindblowing stuff that you'd rather spend your time on, and i understand is what your do is more largescale, i'm just sharing my thoughts.

if you really want a mirror you can just use my portals mod, create a thin portal and link it to itself
(though bullets and stuff will mirror through)
