Hey Everyone,

 

I have a question. Have been off the rendering for a while and I am switching from vray max to vray rhino to improve my workflow. I wonder how I can get the vray infinity plane to not show up in my rendering but I still want it to effect the scene lighting. Like reflecting sunlight and such. Now I see the infinitplane through my windows and I don't want that... I rather add the ground in PS.

 

How is this done?

 

Best regards

Sledge

Hey Sledge Hammer

In Max you can do this by selecting the Vray plane - right clink for the quad menu, and hit Vray properties. Tick the Matt object box and also set the Alpha Contribution to 0 so it does not show up in the Alpha Channel. The same effect can also be achieved simply by accessing the Max Object properties and setting the plane to be "invisible to camera". Hopefully one or both these options exist in Rhino, but I've never used it
