I’ve got a really simple question, I’m sure someone has to have run into this before, but how do you render a reflection pass in vray? Do matte objects work differently when using HDRI and GI with reflections, shadows seem to work fine, but no reflections 
Thanks!

If your using a vray material wrapper to do your matte material i suggest puttint a vray material in the empty material slot. this will a: control color of the GI comming off of the matte. and if you turn on reflections it will also lend reflections to the matte. i suggest though putting a black color in the environment of that vray material. its very fussy though. the reflections are cut out in the alpha
hmm… well i’ll give it a shot, i might just set local environ mats to cut down the reflection coming in off the hdr mat and comp together the other elements, might give a little more control.
thx!!!
Umm …
I also want to know if you can run just a reflection..Pass…on the object in the scene
Like object reflection HDRI…and floor glossy reflections …shadows…and ..Nothing else???
apparently you can turn off visible to camera under an objects properties and it works, haven’t tried making the affected object a matte tho…
Umm that still doesn’t give you the relections..And the shadow and the object…
any one have a solution ???
