reflections with animation int/ext

[mooney102]

Hello all,

Typicall in an animation, I would render the exterior seperatly from the interior, due to the size and control of the elements. The problem that always presents itself is the reflections in glass, mirrors, ... they are not there. When I render these files seperatly, and composite they look great, minus the reflections. I recently x refed the scene into the bldg file, when rendering this file out as one, The outside is way too dark. No matter how much i try to lighten it. I have also went the path of exr files, this does brighten the exterior enough, but the interior gets washed out. Would anybody be willing to share some experience on this?
