Looks great Vlado! How is it used - a new drop-down menu?

Good job,
Very interesting stuff.

wow, good news. I assume it will also work with biased path tracing? in other words, when using the path tracing solution as GI prepass?

Exactly !

NICE! great idea. Im wondering - does this mean less render time for ppt?

[DaForce]

ooo very cool indeed.

I too am wondering if these means a faster PPT?

[jacksc02]

nice vlado!!

Keep up the great work

[rpc212]

So cool! Well done, you rock Vlado!

[priad]

Pretty nice!!! Hey Vlado you never stop to work, it's amazing

Faster?????

[Paul Oblomov]

Don't think it's that faster.
Maybe less noise at the same rendertime. That's why Maxwell got delayed again

vlado could you please repair the links to the images?

my question is, if ppt could render caustics directly from a lightsource like a sun? this isn't working for me. I would like to make a mirror wich reflects the sunlight coming through the window.

You are better off using normal photon-mapped caustics in that case.
