  • SKY and Floor reflective chrome 3d

    Ok , I am trying to still do this in C4d , I have my object in place , I am finding that I need a straight forward mirror texture rather than a chrome one.
    If anyone knows if such a plugin , the chrome ones have a lot of texture noise and blur on them > to add to to this chromey effect , which doesnt suit my needs..

    Could someone tell me how to place a Sky and floor texture so that its not in shot , so that my background is black but my object is reflecting the texture…

    If you want the Sky and Floor to reflect in your object, but not be seen in the rendered image, add a compositing tag to each (Tags > CINEMA 4D Tags > Compositing), and deselect “Seen by Camera” in the Tag Properties.

    If your chrome texture has too much noise and blur dig into the texture’s settings and decrease or remove any fresnel, noise, blur, etc.
