Dissable reflections partially
Hello everybody,
Been fidgeting with Cinema 4D for a few days and I’ve been modelling two spinning dices on cylinders sitting at a relative distance as a practice run. Now, I’ve applied a reflective metallic texture on the cylinder to be able to have a reflection from the above dice but after a quick render, I saw that the other dice and cylinder was reflecting into the first cylinder as well. How can I maintain the reflection for the object above but stop it for the ones in vicinity?

Add compositing tags to the objects that you do not want to appear in reflections. Go to the tag’s Exclusion tab and drag the reflective objects into the link box.

Thank for the quick reply.
Still getting used around the Cinema 4D interface so I wasn’t able to locate the Exclusion tab you are mentioning. Is that present in the attribute manager of each individual object?

First you need to add the compositing tag to your objects — the one’s you want to exclude. Then click on the tags and look at the attributes manager. Exclusion is one of the tabs at the top.
