Reflection Bug

[ecximer]

I then decided to re-create such a landscape and ...
far from it - does not get the right reflection of the sun in the waves. I suspect that this is a bug ...

Above the horizon - like the truth

I noticed different kind of odd behavior which your picture shows too...  yellow sun...  i do not think it should look as yellow :) Probably bug too :)

[ecximer]

Your sarcasm is understandable, but in this case, the color of the sun does not really matter.

[lacilaci]

you need a better sea shader to somehow fake scattering of light within water, Hdri for the sky might help too, and glare done in post... I don't see much bugs there, or am I missing something?...

It was not sarcasm at all...  i tried to do same kind of shot some time ago, and stopped at problem with too yellow sun... I really think sun should not like that yellow, but more of a white with orange to red fringe, like on photo. Like on this render from Maxwell:

If I understand correctly, the Ecximer is not talking about the color of the sun and of the incorrect sun reflection in the water surface. I try to render a similar shot, but the reflections look properly.

All right. Perhaps the problem in my hand curves.
If you have a shader that would change the situation for the better, it is not so kind to share it?

It was not sarcasm at all...

Can You share max file or maybe screenshot settings?

Привет Ecximer, знаком с тобой по 3д центру еще )) Я сценку не сохранил, там все просто, ед. измерения - метры, плэйн 5000х5000 метров и солнце, материал: диффуз: темно-бирюзовый, отражения с иор 1,33, все остальное по дефолту. Ну меня версия не альфа 3, а каждодневная. могу тебе скинуть на почту последний билд, если тебе кеймастер не расшарил дропбокс с билдами последними.

As much as I appreciate your contribution to the Corona community (especially light lister script) I have to ask you to respect the forum rules, which state that you should use only English on this forum, so all of the users can understand ;)

Yes, i fully understand that...  i was only stating that his picture also displays another oddity that i think is a bug...  a weird color of sun disk when sun is very close to the horizon.

ok, sorry, I will continue to write only in English

I've actually recently fixed a bug that would cause exactly this. It is fixed in the daily builds, excimer, do you want access?

[ecximer]

Yes, would be very grateful for your trust.

[Ondra]

ok, send me your dropbox account email.

[maru]

yep

[ecximer]

I tried in a new build, and the result is better than nothing :)
