hehe lol, all I saw was "Realistic Glass Tutorial", and got happy thinking its for lightwave

ahh well...

great job BTW!!! very well written

In dont use 3dsmax, I dont even know what it is, BUT THAT IS A AWESOME TUT!.

hey, do you really mean to set up the global multipliers with x50000 for caustic photons, and x10000 for global illum photons, because thats an awfully large amount, considering that the standard amounts are 10000 photons each. Hey I hold realistic simulations in high respects, but 500000000 caustic and 100000000 GI photons is a little overkill, realistic renders can be achieved with less than 25000 caustic photons per light. How long did it take you to render that image?

wacom. And under the wacoms this is like the mercedes of graphics tablets.

-Well gee, where is mine then?

not too long. 3 minutes I think

uhm so do you really mean to set the global multiplier to that or not, that kinda was my question, the render time was secondary

Well I thought i'd do a render of it myself, with caustic and GI multiplier set to 1

The Picture in my scrapbook

The use of so many photons isn't necessary, its a waste of processing power.

Although I have to say that the material is quite nice. A proper mental ray material is a bit nicer tho ^^.

awesome tut, but when i created the MR area light, i didnt find the mental ray indirect illumination stuff. please help!
