there is one question i have: how can we use reflection attenuation in vray + hdri, i m having a scene where objects are falling on a flat surface with a good amount of reflection, objects falls when the camera moves forward, and i don't want to show the reflection of the objects which r at a certain distance from the camera. all the objects r placed above the camera, and currently its showing the reflection of all the objects, and it looks pretty weired.:eek:
pls help me out.

Try setting the reflection cutoff to 0 in the options section of the material.

i've tried the option, its working but not the way i want, i want that if an object is above a certain height from the ground, its reflection should be visible on the ground, but after a certain height it should not be visible, lets say if the object is on x height above the ground, that its reflection should not be visible, but when it reaches to x/2 height the ground starts reflecting it.
