heyas; basically: no. poser does not use a ray tracer, and can't do real reflections. you can fake it in two ways... one involves rendering your image from the mirror-eye view (there was a message on the main poser forum a few months back on how to calculate that), and paste it onto a flat surface in your scene's mirror. alternately, if the scene is VERY simple, you can create a mirror-image of it by using two identical figures. that's kinda limited, though. if you have asymmetrical hair or clothing, forget it. :)
