I have problem with forest not showing on mirrored object.There is pavewalk on left and right and only on left side forest is showing. Flipping polygons helps but it's instance object so then I'm loosing forest on other side. So basically something isn't right.



here's the scene

Hi,

While using the Mirror tool, I would suggest you to select the Geometry mode (which applies a Mirror modifier whose transformation matrix matches the current Reference Coordinate System setting). This should avoid any "flipped normals" issues.

Hope that helps.

Best regards,
