casino dize material ?

[dlparisi]

Doesn't seem that hard ...



It's not perfect but pretty convincing. I made the dispersion material following vlado's directions and tweaked the material a bit for proper diamond IOR (2.417) and dispersion (.044). The major thing I think I did however was give the diamond something to reflect via an HDRI reflection map (i.e. kitchen.hdr) and a few white planes. Since it's basically colorless it needs something to reflect otherwise it gets a little boring. It didn't seem to matter but I also upped the bounces to 20 for reflect & refract just in case. Here's the scene... http://www.dpict3d.com/vray/dice_dlparisi_004.zip

well, it seems you got it sorted already, but i started this one the other night before dlparisi posted this last scene of him (which seems to have nailed it).

thought I posted it anyway, just to add another die to the thread.

Matches that photo fairly slowly

yeah, and considering how slowly, I'd say it doesn't even match it that good.

[DaForce]

slowly why the hell did I type that... stupid brain.


Sorry meant closely

[rivoli]

slowly why the hell did I type that...

I thought you had downloaded and ran the scene

and I was like: "damn, I knew I shouldn't have turned dof on.."

[DaForce]

hahha nah havnt ran the scene yet.

So it seems my random word writting turned out to be fairly accurate.. haha.

Will give it a look later.

I've been following this thread to see how this comes out. Last two results are amazing. Perhaps this thread should have been posted in the 'Challenges' forum...

Anyway, it's awesome to see such teamwork to solve a problem. Keep up the good you work guys.
