Hey all trying to get back into 3d Max
Eventually the scene will be a Octopus in a highball glass. Materials are blinn with raytrace reflection/refraction. lights: 1 skylight value at .4 , 1 photometric target area, and a regular are only set up to produce photons. here is what i get so far

trying to get the caustics right. first problem is i cant get my caustics to blend. my photons per light is set at 900000. is there a way to change photon size?
problem two when a place a liquid into the glass the caustics will not go through the glass only bounce forward. how do i get the photons to travel through both glass and liquid?
