Metallic surface in interiors receiving sky color

[strong shadow]

Hi!

I'm a beginner with Reflection Probes, and I'm not sure how to stop metallic surfaces in my interior from reflecting the sky (HDRP).

The probe fixed the reflections on the floor and walls (they were showing the sky color before), but the metallic surfaces are still having that problem... 😅

(It's day time on this screenshot outside the building)

Thanks for help!

I believe the reflection probe didn't fix the floor and walls, they are lit by diffuse lighting which reflection probes do not contribute to, and when generating baked GI diffuse light will be occluded naturally
Metallic materials are only lit by specular, meaning reflection probes and realtime reflections
The probe's floating icon is showing a fully bright environment without diffuse light being occluded, which is what the specular lighting in its range is
Hence the blue sheen on non-metallic materials as well
So it's possible the reflection probe was baked first before diffuse lighting was calculated, so you may be able to fix it by re-baking the probes only

Thanks for the reply! I might've forgotten to mention that I'm currently using HTrace World Space GI. I'm not using any baked lighting, everything is real-time.
The reflection probe is also real-time, currently Every Frame for testing purpose.

Important details to mention
I'm not familiar with that GI system but in any case you can see in the preview orb that the reflection probe is seeing its surroundings as fully bright

And the lighting around it reflects that

Do you think there's another way, besides using a Reflection Probe, to prevent the sky from lighting up my interior room?

Unless your lighting asset has a custom solution for reflections, not very practically

There is the Indirect Lighting Controller that can reduce or nullify environment reflections to stop outside light
But it'll stop all light, so you don't get expected reflections from within the room
All metals would be solid black
