Hello,

some time ago I discovered a bug in the Translucency RE:

https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=12679.msg82030#msg82030

Today, I tried again with the new release of Corona, but, the problem, now, is also inside the Reflection channel.
I want to explain, because it's not so easy to understand:

As we know

--- CESSENTIAL_Reflect = Components_Reflect_DIRECT + Components_Reflect_INDIRECT ---

But, also

--- CESSENTIAL_Reflect = RawComponent_Reflect * SourceColor_Reflect ---



Well, we can recreate the BEAUTY by the sum of all CESSENTIAL. And, Corona does a good job =)
We can recreate the BEAUTY with be sum of CShading_Components. And, Corona, again, does a good job =)

But, it's not possible to recreate the BEAUTY by the sum of RawComponent*SourceColor channels (Diffuse+Reflect+Refract+Translucency)!
Why? Because if I compare the Reflections and Translucency layers (RawComponent*SourceColor) with the CESSENTIAL, they are different. I mean

(*) RawComponent_Reflect * SourceColor_Reflect is not the same and CESSENTIAL_Reflect  .
(*) RawComponent_Translucency * SourceColor_Translucency  is not the same and CESSENTIAL_Translucency .

You can download the 32bit file composition in this link. The psd file is already done to "play"with all layers.

Mmm.. I think that I understand where the problem is: the strong HDRI as a background.
In some "way", the HDRI is so bright and it creates problem in the multiplication (RAW*SourceColor).

Maybe this is something related to image filtering? Have you tried doing the same thing with filtering and AA globally disabled?
