caustics problem...


#1

Hi,

I’m having trouble with the “calculate accurate caustics”-option when rendering… The thing is, i need to have accurate caustics in the scene, but when caustics are enabled, they are overly bright and really not accurate :slight_smile: What settings should i tune, to get a good result? i used the regular “dark smoked glass” material for the tables. So the caustics should be darker, not lighter, as they are in the scene… Here’s what’s up ->
The scene without caustics - table shadow not good…

the scene with caustics - when rendering a higher resolution, the caustics spot is more uniform and much brighter…

Any suggestions as to how to resolve this problem, are welcome! :slight_smile:

kind regards,
Valdek
