How to get reflections of the glasses in a fast rendering process?
I got the reflections only using the "outdoor final method" both normal and phisic render engine.
What's the parameter to enable to get the reflections?

Try increasing glass optimization level under Global Illumination> Details:....






And then increase the Reflection depth under Details>General Options:-

(also a good idea to increase Ray Depth while you're at it; anything between 15-20 should give you decent looking glass reflections)



Make sure you use a glass material with good reflection values and settings otherwise this will not work.
Ideally they work with the default glass you get in the Materials Catalog available with AC18
