Problem with reflection (Doesn´t look good)

[Anonymous]

Hi, Im new in 3DS Max and V-ray as well. I downloaded the free version of V-Ray and followed a tutorial, I do 100% what the guy says on the video, but I can´t get the same results, the reflex on the teapot and the floor is not so real as the one in the video. Im using 3dsmax 2014 and v-ray 3.0. I tried using other settings, like reflect 100% white and I got some better results, but still not the same...how could be that even using 100% white its not enough 😕

This is the tutorial, please go to 10:40 to see how it should look https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1ymrF4OGcI

this are my tests:

1st image is doing what the tuto says, 2nd one I added 100% white to reflect in the floor, couldn´t do anything about the teapot.

in advance thanks for you help!

Hi,

Are you sure that you turned on Caustics? Looking at your render it seems that you forgot to. At 9:49 min. of the video, the guy did so and the floor below the glass teapot got lit. Try this out.

Hi, yes I did that, even with that setting off he gets better reflection than me, could this be some video card issue? Im using an ati 3870, I know its old, but shouldn´t have any issue at all to do this task.

I got some better results with the teapot, I dont what changed since the last time I tried, anyway the floor still looks bad...also the teapot doesnt look realisitc as the one in the tuto, just better than my last try.
