    How would I make a surface reflect game objects that are above it? Is it only possible with the PRO version?

    (In my case I have a marble surface so it wouldn't be a pure mirror, you would see the texture of the surface with a faint hint of what is going on above it.)

    Thanks!

    I am new to Unity, but from what I have been reading, I am 99.9% sure that any kind of reflection requires render to texture which is pro only.

    Hope that helps,

    You can always fake it by having an inverted group of objects doing the exact same thing below the surface. :)
