Title: Refractive glass without shadows added
Post by: Ondra on 2013-06-02, 22:21:43
Refracts rays from camera, but does not form caustics, so it lets light though and does not cause fireflies:


From left to right: ordinary glass, twosided (thin) glass, new hybrid glass:

Great! Thanks so much. Is it supported absorption too? So,  can we have  transparent colored shadows?

For direct visibility yes, but the shadows won't pick up absorbtion color

So, isn't it possible this effect?

You would have to do it with the refraction color itself, not the attenuation.

No, but he usually gets motivated when someone makes something great in Corona, like the Capybara trailer. ;) So if you want to see the fast development to continue, then make more awesome things in Corona ;)
