    Hey,

    what would be the best approach to add reflections to a material if the environment slot is already used?

    I have a building which is lit by an HDRI in the environment slot.
    I would like to add a reflection map with some clouds to the windows.
    Is this possible on a material or object basis?

    Thanks

    You can try to place thhe objet that you want to be reflected in the scene and bake cubemap lightprobe, then hide the object.

    Thanks for the tip.
    Not sure if I overlooked something, but I couldn´t find any information on how to bake lightprobes in the 3ds max.
    Any help is much appreciated.
