Mirror only works when close up

Hello,

I am trying to add a mirror in a new world. I used the provided code for the "addMirror" function, then I used the following to create the mirror and position it in the desired location:

#Adds a textquad to the scene
mirror = viz.addTexQuad()

#set position
mirror.setPosition(3,3,-2)
mirror.setEuler(0,0,0)

#specify the matrix
m = viz.Matrix()
m.setPosition(mirror.getPosition(viz.ABS_GLOBAL))
m.setEuler(180,0,0)


#Apply mirror settings to mirror object
addMirror(mirror,m)

The problem is that the mirror only reflects when the view is about 1 meter from it. Any distance that is further will make the mirror transparent, and all I can see is what's behind the mirror. Do you know what may be the reason for this?

Does this just happen when you load your own model or also if you use the gallery or court scene?
Code:
court = viz.add('court.ive')
Which version of the code are you using?

This is the mirror_R3 version, not the stereo one. It works fine in the art gallery scene, but I run into this problem when I am using it in my lab's created model. I have not made any alterations to the mirror code.

Can you attach the model or upload it here?
