OPENGL and MIRRORS !!!

[smikauskas]

i run my game in opengl render, because it causes no fps drops , when there are a lot of actions at the same time. the only problem i have is, when postal dude looks at the mirror, he does not see himself in the mirror, and the mirror looks like a square stone or block.how to enable in opengl render mirrors???. i believe i have to do some tweaks in postal2.ini file. any help? thanks

Unfortunately, that's OpenGLs fault. It doesn't support mirrored surfaces, so mirrors looking strange in OpenGL is normal.

dude looks at the mirror, but he dosn,t see himself in it, because mirror looks like stone. so if i understand corectly, no way to see dude in a mirror in open gl???

[smikauskas]

so , i'll play this game in open gl without mirrors:) because advantages are very good fps, no fps drop outs and not bad video quality

How do you run it in OpenGL?

Edit your local Postal2.ini file with Notepad or a text editor, look for this section:

[Engine.Engine]
RenderDevice=D3DDrv.D3DRenderDevice
;RenderDevice=Engine.NullRenderDevice
;RenderDevice=OpenGLDrv.OpenGLRenderDevice

Change it so that there's a semicolon in front of the D3DDrv line, and none in front of the OpenGLDrv line:

[Engine.Engine]
;RenderDevice=D3DDrv.D3DRenderDevice
;RenderDevice=Engine.NullRenderDevice
RenderDevice=OpenGLDrv.OpenGLRenderDevice

Alright, thank you!
