environment reflection and unexpected GI effect

[daniel_hou]

Hi everyone

I am new here and also new with Vray.

I am doing an external view with GI, I built something around the main building only for reflection, but these environment also craeted unexpected GI effects on the main building.

How can I get rid of the GI effects but still have reflection?

Thanks a lot

Daniel

what you could try is put a hdri map in the vray enviroment reflection overide slot... so you would have the reflection but you wouldnt see the map.

also, if by "Gi effects" you mean color bleeding or extra light...you can always take the materials that are assigned to the objects that suppose to reflect and transform it into a vray Material wrapper...then lower it's GI contribution to the scene..

hope that makes sense..
