Caustics help

V-Ray V-Ray Common Tutorials, Tips & Tricks

Hi all,

I was doing some research in this forum, and tried some egsamples of setting-up materials and light in order to acheive caustics effect, but with not much happening. I did manage to acheive something, but looked to bad; I spent 10-12 hours trying everything :frowning: very unpredictable results. Ultimately I am trying to create swimming pool with some waterfall droping into it. If somebody got good “how to” or maybe scene in Max 7[I am still using 1.47.03 version (till my dongle arrives 8) ] will be very appretiated.
