Someone asked to see a PBR mirror in Opensim so here's mine. Use the latest Firestorm viewer 7.1.10.75913 and make sure mirrors are enabled in your graphics settings. You can find the instructions to make your own here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvTukP_A91o

Very Nice...so...As an experiment, it is very entertaining. But placing only one in your region will decrease the fps by 50% with the consequent increase in lag. It is not recommended to use PBR mirrors if what you want is for people to feel comfortable in your region. It is just the opinion of an ordinary Opensim user

One mirror does decrease fps, but when I'm running ultra graphics at 179 fps the drop isn't noticeable. The really interesting discovery was that doubling or tripling the number of mirrors produced no additional drop in fps at all. To be honest, I have almost zero interest in placing out mirrors, but what pbr IS good for is much better surface lighting when pbr materials are used on objects, especially metals and floors. The lobby of my store, Lunaria Emporium, looks far better now than it ever did with the older FS viewer. You can see pbr at work there on multiple surfaces.
