Could you attach a download link for this map? Or point to an existing fm? The mirror in cook's room in St Alban Caduceus looks normal. |

Attached. r_useFBO seems to be affecting global brightness, but I've checked and the mirror is brighter than the scene above with both r_useFBO 0 and r_useFBO 1. Edit: the global brightness thing is probably 0004669. |

Sorry, I can't debug the .map because I am clueless with DR. Can you move the relevant materials in a separate .mtr file? But I think this might be because the mirror lacks the solid background behind it. Try to copy paste the mirror from St Albans Caduceus or remote camera test map and see the difference. |

That's TDM's basic mirror material. Now that I look, I see it's been changed: 2.05 version: textures/common/mirror { description "used for mirror subrenders" discrete // never merge with other surfaces qer_editorimage textures/common/mirror.tga solid mirror { blend add map textures/common/mirror.tga } } 2.06 version: textures/common/mirror { description "used for mirror subrenders" discrete // never merge with other surfaces qer_editorimage textures/common/mirror.tga solid mirror { blend add mirrorRenderMap map textures/common/mirror.tga } } Related to 0004615 changes? My guess it that either blend add is causing the brightness (in 2.05 it would do nothing because textures/common/mirror.tga doesn't exist, but now maybe mirrorRenderMap gives it something to add) or mirror and mirrorRenderMap are having some kind of combined effect. |

textures/washroom/mirror has the same brightness as the reflected scene (in 2.05 it's darker but that's because of a blend stage that got removed). In 2.06 it also uses both mirror and mirrorRenderMap. With mirror alone it's black after dmap. I'm trying to manipulate the material to narrow things down (among other things, for some reason 2.06 textures/washroom/mirror has no discrete keyword) but I'm getting dmap crashes. Edit: definitely looks as though the brightness comes from additive blending in the mirrorRenderMap stage. Though the underlying bug is that the mirror keyword isn't working, which is why the 2.05 versions of the materials weren't functioning. |

Can you try the remote camera test map and see if it works for you? |
|

I wasn't sure which one, but I checked camera.map from 0004615 and when I go near the second screen, the first one changes to have the same view as the second. |

That was work in progress but it does not have the brightness issue? Here's the latest Grayman's version: http://forums.thedarkmod.com/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_id=15171 Also: http://forums.thedarkmod.com/index.php?app=core&module=attach§ion=attach&attach_id=15113 But best example is any released map such as Inn Business or St Albans Caduceus. |

I don't have access to those links. I noted in http://forums.thedarkmod.com/topic/19162-beta-testing-206/page-2#entry414153 that In the Black (in beta testing) is affected. It seems from my examinations there are two separate brightness differences with 2.06 materials. textures/common/mirror is overbright in 2.06 because it additively blends in mirrorRenderMap, which it doesn't in 2.05. (Which is unexpected when it should be adding to black void, but I have tested the material with and without additive blending.) textures/washroom/mirror is brighter than 2.05 because of a missing blend gl_dst_color,gl_zero stage. In both cases the strength of the difference can depend on the brightness of the scene that's being reflected: in 2.06 textures/common/mirror the scene is blended as a source image, in 2.05 textures/washroom/mirror it's blended as a destination image. It should be possible to improve how the materials are set up, but it would still be treating the symptoms rather than making the original materials work properly, and might just produce other bugginess. |
