Vray clipper liquid/glass reflection problem

[Eaton]

Hi

I am using Vray clipper to cut my Frost liquid object to fit exactly where the liquid meets the glass. This is a workaround for re simulation reallfow. It works really well but as soon as I have intersection objects it is as if the reflection/refraction of the liquid gets deleted.
You can see this in the image posted below. The reflection in the liquid below the cylinder and the sphere has disappeared. Unfortunately, I cant upload the scene file atm. Any advice would be appreciated.

Cheers

Could you share your scene so we could teke a look and se what exactly might be going on?

Hi Nikolay

Please download the scene: linked attached at the bottom of post.

When using Realflow it can be difficult to achieve smooth meshes generated from particles with precise position of liquids edge. With this method I can just use the clipper to cut the liquid where I want. This is a huge time saver. You can see what I mean in the images below.

I am using a copy of the "Flask" object to cut onto the Thinkbox Frost object. I have converted this object to an poly "liquid_thinkbox_frost"
I will have to ad some bubbles inside the liquid. This is where the problem comes in. I have just added this cylinder to illustrate the reflection/refraction problem I am having.

Many Thanks!
