Hi Guys,

I've been practicing with Cinema4d motion tracking but I can't seem to figure out how to get a reflection on my floors and walls.
I've read that frontal mapping is not supported in Octane so I use a matte material on my floors to get the shadows working.

Is there a way to get a reflection on my floors as well?
I have attached an image of the render without floor reflections and a photo of the original footage.

I would appreciate any tips!

Hi 3DTreatment,
you need to use the Render Layer technique to have reflection on the surrounding objects.
Please have a look at the documentation:
Render Layer Passes
