Hello all.

I have a question, I’ve been using UE4 for a number of years and UE5 for a while now, but I don’t get the Reflection Captures in real time, it used to work in UE4!

If I put down a Plane and a Reflective Shader for the test, nothing happens.

Also when I do Reflection Capture Build nothing changes, normally you would see the reflections shift when I move the Reflection Captures but nothing happens.

Here is a Screencap with Reflection Capture Build and without Reflection Capture Build. Hopefully someone can advise?

I also looked in the Project Settings under Render and the quality (samples)

I want to thank you in advance for your help!

Build Reflection Capture with Reflection Capture.

Are you using Lumen? Then I think the RC does nothing any more… 🙂

Hi,  
Thank you! Should I turn off Lumen?

I really don’t know how the old lighting system is supported now. Maybe if you turn off Lumen, you get them back, but then the lighting will look bad again…
