How is NFS: No Limits reflections achieved?

I have always wondered how do Firemonkeys generate such realistic reflections on the roads of Need for Speed No Limits. Reflections seems to be in realtime and I dont know how they do to run smoothly in low devices. Here is a screenshot:



Maybe they first render the background to a RT and then use it in the floor render pass? How is then the UV calculated?

Thanks in advance

 

That's probably a planar reflection, like in the PS2-era NFS games. Basically, render a low detail version of the scene using a camera that has a matrix calculated to be the mirror version ofnthe main camera into a RenderTexture, then use that texture on the road material. It's not accurate at uneven surfaces, but should look convincing most of the time,

 

Thank you! Using “planar reflection” as search tem results in a lot of info
