Mirror/Camera Visibility

The Mirror/Camera Visibility section is a very simple section that controls whether the material should appear in VRChat Mirrors, in Cameras, or not at all. This can be used for very niche effects, such as if you want only a specific texture or effect to only show when the material is being viewed from a Mirror, or from a Camera.

In VRChat, this section takes advantage of the game's unique rendering behaviors in Mirrors and Cameras for greater control in various circumstances.
