Vray Plane and Reflection-Refraction

[christosviskadourakis]

Hello there,

 

I am facing a problem. I have an interior scene which the camera looks on the interior as well as outside, through windows. The exterior is empty (I will put some backplates in post-production). However, I have a vray plane which gives me the effect I want, which is some lighting coming (as reflected) from below as it would do a road or a pedestrian street.

 

The problem is that the vray plane is visible on the reflection of windows and I dont want that. If I set the vray plane as a Matte object I lose the reflected light I want. I have tried to set the vray plane as matte object, as matte for refle/refract, I have tried to set it as invisible to camera (through object properties) but I dont have the result I want, which is to keep the reflected light from the plane but to hide the plane in the reflections of the windows-glass.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thank you

Christos

Set it to invisible to reflections/refractions? Or do you end up with the same issue then?

It takes out the reflected light I want.

change it in the object properties and not in the vray properties
