    I can confirm this issue is fixed with the Adrenalin 22.7.1 Optional driver from 7/26/22 on a Windows 11 machine with a RX 6700 XT.

    My installed driver before this was from 4/28/22 and the problem was still there post-patch, even with a clean Sims 4 folder.

    Not a great screenshot, but this shows the issue is fixed:

    I cannot believe AMD fixed this! I am so happy (I seriously teared up, that's how happy I am)!

    Tagging @WolvesCreek to let them know to try the newest optional driver, since they didn't think this would ever be fixed. And @animus_belli and also @skyemuu, because I think they will also be super happy!


    Thank you @ADimGaR for the heads up!

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? PC: 1.77.131.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Every single pack.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Place a mirror on the wall in a room or placed down on the floor.
What happens when the bug occurs? When mirrors are placed down they no longer reflect the room but instead they reflect the other side of the wall.
What do you expect to see? I place a mirror opposite a sink but instead of it reflecting the sink, it will show the other side of the wall the mirror is attached to, or if I place a mirror on a wall with no wallpaper, it will show the yellow wallpaper on the other side.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

‌

I have had this bug for a while and after removing all my Mods and CC to accommodate the latest patch, it's still there. Essentially mirrors in my game no longer reflect rooms they are placed in and instead only reflect wall it's attached to on the other side.

Example: I have a mirror in a bedroom, instead of it reflecting the bedroom, it's reflecting the wallpaper on the hallway outside of the room.

        @RipleyGamer I merged your post with the master on this then

        Seems to be some kind of driver issues that will probably need to be fixed by AMD.
