Title: Goo Bubbles with flipped faces inside
Post by: ParticleSkull on 2016-10-09, 04:07:45
Hey guys, I need to render goo with bubbles inside.

That's my reference. On this case the guy (Simon) put bubbles with flipped normals inside the goo. This causes the cool thin transparent areas.

That's what I get when I try the same technique on Corona, the bubbles also get the volume. Is there a way to make it transparent, "killing" the volume of that area?

The left side one have no bubbles inside.

and that's how the bubbles looks like without the mesh:

Is there, maybe, another way to achieve this effect?

Here's the scene file, just in case ;) https://www.dropbox.com/s/tmzgmkgq41e7fq6/Snot%20v1-b%20-%20optimized%20%282013%29.rar?dl=0

Thank's,

If you want transparent bubbles, you need to use refraction instead of translucency.
