HI,
Could we have precision about map you used in Chaos: Industry-leading design and visualization software file exemple 5: volumetrics, to have this nice smoke effect with cautics ?
When i use smoke procedural map in fog density map, caustics disapears…
could we please have answers Vlado ? or texture file you use for your exemple?
Thanks and sorry for my english.

No answers after severals days ?
Whaouuu…
you can delete this thread…!
Did you figure it out? I was trying but did not get it
There is nothing tricky about it, it’s the same scene, but the fog density has a smoke texture.
Best regards,
Vlado
OK thanks for your answers,
but as i told you, here is my result when i apply smoke procedural texture into fog density slot: it is not like your exemple, as you can see caustics disapears. i have just insert smoke procedural texture in fog density slot, change size to 25 and hit render.
i’m under max 2009 64 bits.

Yep, I get the same thing add a cloud map texture to any of the slots and the caustics go away, I even hacked the subs up to 100 and nothing.
It will work if you un-check the “Optimized atmospherics evaluation” option in the V-Ray system rollout. Not quite sure why it does not work with that option on, I have to look into it.
Best regards,

Ah good to know 
Bravo and thanks Vlado,
i will check that.
