Here is the tutorials :

Tutorial - quick

---------------------------------------------


1. Basic Mirror

Step0 Create a new scene.
Step1 Append MainCameraAction script to Main Camera from FantasyMirror/Script/Common folder.


Press mouse right button and move mouse, you can change the view direction.
Press A/S/D/W key this Main Camera will be moved.

Step2 Drag MirrorEffect.prefab from FantasyMirror/Profab/1_BaseMirror to scene.



Now you should see a green view frustum line frame with main camera and a red frustum line frame with mirror camera in the Scene View.



You need set the MirrorSupport to new layer(like layer A. The layer of the MirrorSupport
is UI in default) and set the MirrorCamera’s culling mask to ignore it.


Step3 Select the MirrorFrame GameObject which be one child of the MirrorEffect GameObject.
In the BaseMirrorMap script component you will see some parameters as follow:



Main Light: the scene main light, you need drag to.
Width: the width of the MirrorFrame.
Height: the height of the MirrorFrame.

The width and height delineate the range of the Mirror Blocks in. It's integer.
It can be setup in edit state. You have to keep they with the size of MirrorMask.
MirrorBlock need be placed in the MirrorFrame area.


Size: the size of the RenderTexture.
You need set the value before playing. The bigger size will get more defination,
but decrement FPS.

Now you can place a model in front of the mirror. Play it.


2. Effect Mirror

Step0 Create a new scene.
Step1 Append MainCameraAction script to Main Camera from FantasyMirror/Script/Common folder.
( Reference BaseMirror )

Step2 Drag MirrorEffect.prefab from FantasyMirror/Profab/2_EffectMirror folder to scene.

 

Step3 Select the MirrorFrame GameObject( one child of the MirrorEffect GameObject ).
In the EffectMirrorMap script component you will see some parameters as follow:



Main Light: the scene main light, you need drag to.
Width: the width of the MirrorFrame. (reference BaseMirror)
Height: the height of the MirrorFrame. (reference BaseMirror)
Size: the size of the RenderTexture. (reference BaseMirror)

Mirror Type:
If you select Mirror type, you will get a common mirror like BaseMirror and
the following three parameters ( Mirror Definition / Mirror Intensity / Right )
will be invalid.
If you select Mirror Effect type, you will get a reflect plane which texture can
be set in MirrorBlock.

Mirror Definition: (Only be valid in Mirror Effect type)
The value will result the mirror image of the GameObject in front of the mirror plane
blur or clear.

Mirror Intensity: (Only be valid in Mirror Effect type)
The intensity of mirror reflecting effect.

Right: (Only be valid in Mirror Effect type)
The brightness of the mirror plane.


Step4 Select the MirrorBlock(one child of MirrorFrame GameObject). In the Effect Mirror
Block Script, you will see a parameter "Mirror Texture". You can replace the instance
with your texture.



Now Play it, you will see a mirror plane with a texture selected by you self.
You can switch the common mirror model and mirror effect model in playing by changing
the M Mirror Type value.



3. MultiBlock Mirror

In fact, both BaseMirror and EffectMirror can be composed of one or more blocks. You need
only adjust the block's size and clone a mirror block. The parent of the new MirrorBlock and
the original must be the same one. The other steps can reference BaseMirror and EffectMirror.

In FantasyMirror/Profab/3_MulitBlockMirror folder, you can get ready-made multiblock mirror prefab.
You can add one of them to the scene and test it.



NOTE:
One MirrorFame can have more one child( Mirror Block ). One MirrorEffect just have to be two children
( One is MirrorFrame, another is MirrorCamera).




4. Real Mirror

Step0 Create a new scene.
Step1 Append MainCameraAction script to Main Camera from FantasyMirror/Script/Common folder.
( Reference BaseMirror )

Step2 Drag RealMirror.prefab from FantasyMirror/Profab/4_RealMirror folder to scene.
You now get a GameObject named "RealMirror".

 

Step3 Select the MirrorFrame GameObject( one child of the MirrorEffect GameObject ).
Drag main light to the MirrorMap script component and adjust the others parameters.
( Reference BaseMirror )



You need set the MirrorSupport to new layer(like layer A. The layer of the MirrorSupport is MS1 in
default) and set the MirrorCamera’s culling mask to ignore it.


Step4 Drag RealMirror.prefab from FantasyMirror/Profab/4_RealMirror folder to scene again.
You now get a GameObject named "RealMirror(1)".

Step5 Move RealMirror(1) to the back of Main Camera and then rotate 180 degree around Y axis.
Adjust the distance from the Main Camera.Then set up the children like Step3.
( You need set the MirrorSupport to new layer(like layer B. The layer of the MirrorSupport is MS1 in
default) and set the MirrorCamera’s culling mask to ignore it. )




Step6 Select the MirrorCamera under the RealMirror. Make the MirrorCamera script component enable
and select the Action to right. Then drag the MirrorFrame under the RealMirror(1) to the
"Opposite Mirror Frame" variable.




Step7 Select the MirrorCamera under the RealMirror(1). Make the MirrorCamera script component enable
and select the Action to right. Then drag MirrorFrame under the RealMirror to the "Opposite Mirror
Frame" variable.



Now you can put your model between the two RealMirro. Play it.



NOTE:

A. It's necessary to keep distance enough from MirrorCamera to MainCamera. Otherwise, the drawing
will be incorrect. You can adjust them in Scene View.

B. If you want adjust the distance from MirrorCamera to MainCamera, you need just move the
MirrorFrame position, but not MirrorCamera's.

C. The MirrorFrame can be moved and rotated except rolling ( rotate around the forward of the
MirrorFrame).

D. If you want increment the FPS, you can try reduce the "Size" value of the MirrorMap
script component in the MirrorFrame GameObject.

Advance Skill


------------------------------------------------


You can replace the MirrorBlock with your self model. You can do it by selecting your mesh into
the Mesh Filter component in the MirrorBlock created. You can also add your model to the scene.

And first, a MirrorFrame selected should became it's parent. The size of model GameObject should
in the range of the MirrorMask which width and height can be changed.

Second, The MirrorBlock have to be keep in front of the MirrorMask.

Third, the material of the model must use the "SHDBaseMirror" or "SHDBaseMirrorEffect" shader in
the FantasyMirror/Shader/Common folder.
