Question/Discussion
- 00:54:20 · Capt Quark asks: “From what I understand, Goldsrc engine did not have the ability to show true reflective mirrors (for example, the bathroom mirrors were always grayed out). When HL2 was released, mirrors were still rendered this way. Even in L4D. Why? Is this a limitation of the engine itself?”
