Can a mirror be created using a security cam?

[Koko Ricky]

So, I know it's not the same, but in Duke 3D, you have these security cam textures that, when pressed, show you some other angle of the map. Is this possible in any port? And if so, could the camera be positioned so it appears to be a reflection?

Interesting! Then how come there's so many mods that use the mirrored sectors trick to achieve a reflection?

[Arctangent]

They don't. It's just the ( I think? ) software renderer requires stuff like that to prevent rendering issues.

Those mods may be for other ports that do not have native mirror support.
