Clouds in reflections but no clouds in the scene

DC8Studio · Apr 12th 2019

I am in latest previous version 2.5.0.108 and sketchup 2018

Ultra mode

How come i get clouds in my reflection even though environment is set to white background and white ground

surely white background would make the sky white?

if i change it to white background/white cubes the clouds go away, but i have odd cubes in the reflections

ps i made the glass darker so you can see the clouds.

The white background is unlike a white skybox. The white background only replaces the background but not the reflections. Else, your scene and reflections would look very contrast-less. You can try that by using a plain white skybox for yourself. The white background mode should take the lighting from the skybox (our clouds or a loaded one) but replace the background.
