Do you have change your View Transformation before you have render the mirror content

I am not sure what you are mean with “rendered lastly”. Do you mean that what you see depends on the order you draw it or something else
Using the Stencil buffer for mirrors is OK but today it is more typical to use “Render 2 Texture” for mirror effects. This mean you render anything you want to see in the mirror in a texture and than render the mirror itself with this texture.

thank u sir,
iam rendering like this . soppose there are 3 teapot objects infront of the mirror
iam rendering like this
by setting the stencil buffer
tepot1->DrawSubset(0);
tepot2->DrawSubset(0);
teapot3->DrawSubset(0);
in this case mirror is showing only 3 rd object even though all objects are infront of mirror.
anyway i thindk rendering to texture is better idea . but i want to know what's wrong with my code
bye sir
