Please help me. I need to know how to make objects turn into glass and mirrors. I thought there were some shaders for it, but I cant find anything 
Do You use Unity pro?
If you’re using Unity Pro 2.x, you can use the method here: http://www.unifycommunity.com/wiki/index.php?title=MirrorReflection2
No, I am using the free version of Unity. Not the 3.1 or 3.0 or whatever.
The one that came before 3.0
Standard 2.6.1 then? Yeah, I’m not too sure how you would go about creating true reflection with that. The best you might be able to do is apply an environment mapping material (fakes reflection by providing a material of what the scene kind of looks like, like say this: http://images.google.ca/images?hl=en&source=imghp&biw=1323&bih=1092&q=environment+map&gbv=2&aq=f&aqi=g10&aql=&oq=) It won’t be real-time (that is, if you create/move objects around, they won’t appear in the reflection) but depending on what the purpose of your reflection is, this may be sufficient.
Ah, I see. So mainly. the mirrors are going to be inside of buildings. So I would have to take a pictue of the iside the builing. Then use that as a mirror affect?
Possibly. It’ll depend on how accurate you want the mirrors I suppose. You might be able to get away with using one of the random images I posted there on google to achieve a nice effect.
Alright, thank you for your help.
I think I mentioned this in another of your threads, but you seem to be a little confused about what the different versions of Unity mean.
In short, there’s both a free and a Pro version of the latest version of Unity (3.x), just like there was with previous versions. So, you can upgrade to the latest version (3.x) while still using the free version. (I’d suggest upgrading, as that will make some additional features available and will make it a little easier to get help on the forums.)
2-cent theory, why not use a camera somehow maybe? Maybe this can be solved by camera
How I use a camera in unity? And how would I get it to work?
How do I make glass?
You start by reading the docs. Sorry, but these are simply too basic questions to be answered by people. That is what documentations are for…
Okay, well where do I find the documents at…
http://unity3d.com/support/documentation/
There you go. Its also linked at the top of the page.
it’s possible to get it with a separate camera, as mentioned by Zu01.
you can download a proof of concept here
Okay thank you Dman, and Borat… lol
(or however you spell his name)
here’s a tutorial i made on glass… there are similar ones on shiny metal
Its 2020, Here is the 3 Minute guide to make mirror or glass in unity
