Is there a way to speedup reflection/refraction calculation

Hi.
Well, subj

[Morbid Angel]

Paul, a more detailed explanation would help. Otherwise for such question there can be an answer something like this:

yes of course.

[Paul Oblomov]

Hm. Ok.
When we go from 5 to for ex. 22 (refl/refr depth) - got damn big rendertimes.

of course yes

[werticus]

could check interpolation.

Or if you have bitmaps:

To help speed up renders with opactiy maps, set the bitmap blur (of the opacity map) to 0.01 and turn filtering off. that will make it ALOT faster.

Oh, guys, I know that "of course it makes render slower". Just maybe there's a magical button

If you are using perfect reflections/refractions, it may help if you make them a tiny little bit glossy.
