Hello Everyone,
i currently hit an issue while trying to match a 3d Object to a Backplate and HDR Lighting. And there is not one Tutorial that explains it with Vray for Maya.
Well i got this Far:
1. i assigned a Vray Object Properties Node from the Create Menu to the Plane and checked Matte Surface and typed in a Value of -1 for Alpha Contribution (according to the Vray Guide by Fransesco L. ) Everything is good so far. The Plane is not rendered but the Shadow of the Sphere is seen.

The PROBLEM LEFT is that the Shadow is only on the matte surface plane. But i also need the Shadow of the Spere itself being reflected onto the Sphere.
"Matte for all Secondary Rays" doesn't help being checked.
P.s. i posted this problem in cgsociety but get links to the Vray Forums, which havent really helped so far. The last one going in the direction is this one:

but it doesnt solve the problem with the reflection of the shadow on the object itself.
There is really a need of a video tutorial for this.
Hope that someone can help.
