3Delight and Caustics

[sant0s]

Hey

anybody managed underwater caustics with 3Delight?

Is there some attribute I have to add to the light or the water surface or ground?

Thank you,

I think the 'real' caustics isn't supported in plugin. But you can fake it...... It's x time faster to tweak and render, anywhere.

You'll need to add a 3dl "hit mode" property to "sea surface object", and enable "run material for shadow rays".

yea, read something in the 3delight forum, but some older posts - so thought maybe there is an update.

edit: super, works great!! thx again
