That looks strange indeed. Maybe you are using some overrides, or ray switchers?

Hi,

Can you let us know what version of 3dsmax and corona you are using? I quickly did a small test using 3dsmax 2022 with Corona hotfix 1 & did not spot any such problems.

attached is a screenshot for your review.

Regards,
Avi

I am afraid this is an old known issue which is present if you try to achieve fake glass (no caustics). It has to do with glossiness states, and/or the lack of caustics. To resolve this, simply enable caustics on your glass material or resort to 1.0 glossiness for your floor material. We plan to address this in the near future.

@Avi this is related to the following: (Report ID=CRMAX-436)
