Caustics from tests to finally getting the caustics to work with default global illumination so it is still way to bright to function correctly. This is a plane with a total face count under 100 used to create the water.
 |
| This was the first test originally attempting to use image based lighting to give the caustic feel which did not work out so well. |
 |
| With render settings changed a bit and modification of the physical sun and sky attributes. |
 |
| Caustics with mia_material adding a lot more realism to the water but not completely giving the full affects desired. |
 |
Added the mia_material to a mib_transparency node which gave a beautiful affect, now it is just to bright to give a real feel.
|
 |
| The two previous version photshoped together to get more of a desired look i was hoping for. |
