Short description of error
As you can see in the attached image, metallic objects appear black in the cubemap, even if screenspace reflections are enabled during baking.
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
I think this is a known limitation of baked probes, see https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/dev/render/eevee/limitations.html#indirect-lighting
Eevee does not support “specular to diffuse” light bounces nor “specular to specular” light bounces. All specular lighting is turned off during baking.
For specular-specular you need to use SSR.
Will archive this report (unless @Clément Foucault (fclem) has anything to add?)
You can make the object appear diffuse in the reflections if you want, by using the light path node and a mix shader.
hi,
try changing (increasing) the "clipping end" value of the reflection cubemap properties untill it includes the object which appears black.
I assume 100 meters is far enough to encompass both of these spheres, but the issue still persists with metallic objects. Sphere on left has glossy shader, sphere on right is non-metallic principled shader.
